Luno Promo Code

Many of my readers are here for the Luno promo code. So, let’s start this Luno Malaysia review with the latest Luno promo code.

First of all, do not enter any Luno referral code without knowing the details. Because once you’ve entered a Luno code, you can’t enter another code that come with better rewards (Hints: Look for Luno Level 3 promo code that comes with the highest referral reward – RM75 in Bitcoin).

Remember to verify the Luno code through its referral link such as my Luno referral link where you can see the code and the free Bitcoin rewards.

The Luno promo code in this review is valid through 2024 and confirmed works!

Make sure you enter the Luno referral code at the ‘Reward’ tab and aware of the requirements to claim the Luno reward code successfully.

Luno promo code PAWHVW (RM75 in Bitcoin)

Who is Luno Malaysia?

Now, let us learn more about Luno Malaysia.

Luno is a leading global cryptocurrency platform with its headquarters in London and a local presence in the countries below:

  • Malaysia
  • Capetown, South Africa
  • Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
  • Johannesburg, South Africa
  • Jakarta, Indonesia
  • Lagos, Nigeria
  • Sydney, Australia

As of the time of writing, the service is available in more than 40 countries, including Malaysia.

Next, what is a cryptocurrency, or crypto in short?

It is a type of currency that appears in digital format instead of the physical paper money we use daily.

This means you can’t physically hold a cryptocurrency, but you will be able to see it through digital devices such as smartphones, laptops, desktops, or tablets.

Just like paper money, you can use cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange.

Some of the well-known cryptocurrencies include the following:

  • Bitcoin (BTC)
  • Ethereum (ETH)
  • Ripple XRP (XRP)

One of the ways to own cryptocurrency is to buy through a crypto platform such as Luno.

Thus, Luno is a digital platform where its users can safely and easily buy, store and learn about cryptocurrencies.

Is Luno Malaysia legit and safe?

With the happenings in the crypto space such as the FTX collapse, Voyager, and Celcius Bankruptcy, crypto investors are becoming more cautious about the safety of their crypto assets.

This is a good thing.

As crypto owners and crypto investors, we should prioritize the safety of our crypto assets.

If you are wondering if Luno Malaysia is legit and safe, here are my thought about it.

Luno Malaysia has full approval from SC

The main reason I registered for a Luno account is because Luno received full approval from Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) to operate as a registered Digital Asset Exchange (DAX) operator in Malaysia.

Luno Malaysia is regulated by Securities Commission Malaysia.
Luno is regulated by the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC)

In fact, Luno is the first cryptocurrency exchange approved by the SC to run a DAX in the country.

Are you curious about the details of the approval? You can read the SC guideline on digital assets on its website.

With SC approval, I feel more confident when buying cryptos such as Bitcoin through Luno Malaysia. I believe the approval shall reduces some of the risks of my Bitcoin investment.

Luno Malaysia shares proof of reserves

As a crypto exchange where it acts as a custodian for its customers, Luno knows the importance of transparency. Thus, Luno Malaysia shares its proof of reserves on its website and app.

This improves my confidence in Luno.

What are the coins available on Luno Malaysia?

Compared with other approved DAXs in Malaysia, Luno is the crypto exchange that support the most cryptocurrencies.

Currently, these are the cryptocurrencies available on Luno Malaysia platform:

  • Bitcoin (BTC)
  • Ethereum (ETH)
  • Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
  • Ripple XRP (XRP)
  • Litecoin (LTC)
  • Cardano (ADA)
  • Solana (SOL)
  • Chainlink (LINK)
  • Uniswap (UNI)
  • Avalanche (AVAX)
  • Polygon (MATIC)

Any new coins added, shall be updated in this review.

You may also join the official Luno Malaysia Facebook group for the new coin offerings and the recent happenings in Luno.

What are Luno Malaysia fees?

This Luno Malaysia review is incomplete without mentioning its transaction fees.

Dynamic fees mean the fees vary depending on the network traffic.

Fees for receiving crypto to Luno wallet

How to buy Bitcoin through Luno Malaysia?

Through this Luno Malaysia review, let me share how to buy Bitcoin via the Luno wallet aka Instant Buy.

As cryptocurrency is often related to volatility and risk, before you proceed to buy or invest in Bitcoin or other altcoins (digital currency other than Bitcoin) via Luno, please take two minutes to read through the Luno Risk Warning page.

1. Register for Luno Malaysia

First, register for a Luno Malaysia account.

As for me, I registered for Luno Malaysia back in 2020. I entered a friend’s Luno referral code that offer RM25 Bitcoin rewards with RM250 crypto purchase. After I bought RM250 of Bitcoin, I immediately received the RM25 Bitcoin rewards credited to my Luno wallet.

Here is the screenshot of the free RM25 in Bitcoin:

That 0.00090535 BTC signup bonus is worth RM312 when the Bitcoin price was at its recent all-time high of RM347,647.

So, the free Bitcoin you received through the referral program or special Luno promotion could turn into a significant amount in the future.

From my experience, the deposit was reflected immediately after I completed my FPX instant transfer. As for bank transfers, your deposits could take between 2 to 3 business days.

The buying process will be the same for other cryptos available on the platform. Do take note that you’ll need to store each crypto in its own wallet.

Once you’ve made some good profit from your Luno crypto investment, you might be wondering how to withdraw your money from your Luno wallet to your bank account.

If you are concerned about your delayed withdrawal, you may reach out to the Luno support team through a Luno ticket/inquiry form.

How to expedite Luno withdrawal?

Below are some of my personal tips for a smooth withdrawal procedure:

  • Update bank accounts information right after you signed up for your Luno account. This can save on bank account verification time.
  • Plan your withdrawal (avoid withdrawal during public holidays or weekends, but plan your withdrawal during business days, preferably early in the morning).

Luno features and benefits

In this Luno Malaysia review, I will also share the features and benefits of the crypto platform.

1. Low minimal purchase

As mentioned earlier, you can buy cryptocurrencies with just RM1 through Luno Malaysia instant buy (Wallet).

If you are new to crypto investing, you can first try out the crypto exchange with a small amount. From there, you can decide if you want to include crypto in your investment portfolio.

2. Price alerts

When I first got my Luno account, I immediately created a few alerts. I find that the Price Alerts have been helpful and useful for my Bitcoin investment strategies.

Some of my Luno price alerts

As Bitcoin prices swing up and down, I no longer worry about missing out on critical Bitcoin buying or selling opportunities.

3. Attractive Luno referral program

I also find Luno Malaysia offers an attractive referral program through the new tiered Reward Levels.

Luno tiered Reward Levels

Instead of the previous RM25 Bitcoin rewards for every friend or family who successfully signed up through your Luno referral code, now you can earn up to RM75 per referral through the new tiered Reward Levels.

Luno referral program with the new Rewards Levels that offers up to RM75 Bitcoin rewards per referral.

    • Rewards: Both referral and referee earn RM25 in Bitcoin

    • Rewards: Both referral and referee earn RM50 in Bitcoin
  • Level 3: Buy or sell once a month for a total of 12 months
    • Rewards: Both referral and referee earn RM75 in Bitcoin

Luno tiered Reward Levels important notes

Here are the important things about Luno’s tiered Reward Levels:

  • The referee must enter your Luno referral code in the Rewards column upon registration.
  • The referee is required to complete the minimum crypto purchase specified (the current amount is RM250).
  • All buy or sell must be through Luno Instant Buy (Luno Wallet).
  • Each new month that you buy or sell crypto counts towards the progress.

Do take note that Luno reserves the right to change or amend the referral program at any time. So, grab the opportunity while it last!

You can find more details on the Luno website for the tiered Reward Levels.

4. Luno Repeat Buy

I also find the auto-invest through the Luno Repeat Buy feature practical and convenient.

This feature is helpful for crypto investor who prefers the dollar-cost-averaging strategy.

5. High performance Luno Exchange

Luno Exchange

Luno Exchange is a great platform for crypto traders and investor to buy and sell cryptocurrencies.

Some of the exchange’s features worth mentioning in this Luno Malaysia review are:

  • Competitive fees structure
  • High security with deep freeze storage
  • Deep liquidity with high volume and many active traders
  • High quality charting tools for better trading experience
  • Fast transactions

Depending on the situations, occasionally I use Luno Exchange to buy and sell my cryptos. Not only I can set my desired buy or sell price, I get to enjoy lower fees as well.

6. Luno Multi-Buy option

The Multi-Buy option is a new feature where users can buy multiple coins in one transaction.

    1. Hi Murni,

      Thank you for your comment.

      No, you can’t use my RM50 Luno promo code if you registered through another referral code.

      Because the referral code is activated right when you registered through the other referral code. And these kind of promotion code can only be applied once per user.

      Hope my explanation helps.

    1. Hi, again Zahran,

      My Luno promo code LNMICH50 should be working now.
      You may try to apply it again. Should there be any issue, please let me know.

      Thanks again for letting me know the issue. Really appreciate that. Wishing you a great weekend ahead.

  1. hi michelle, may i know how long does it take for the RM50 to be reflected in the account after hitting the purchase threshold of RM500 pls? many thanks in advance..

    1. Hi Daph,

      Thank you for your comment.

      By using my Luno promo code (LNMICH50), right when your crypto purchase through the Instant Buy feature reaches RM500, you’ll immediately receive the RM50 in Bitcoin. At the same time, you’ll receive an email notification from Luno as well.

      Then, you can view the free Bitcoin in your Bitcoin wallet.

      You may refer to the print-screen in my write-up above, where my husband received the free Bitcoin worth RM49.99 (a difference of RM0.01 due to quick Bitcoin price movement).

      Hope this helps.

  2. When applied LNMICH50 promo code, it prompted “This type of promotion code can only be applied once per person.”

    1. Hi Chin,

      Thank you for your comment.

      My promo code LNMICH50 is only valid for NEW Luno Malaysia customer who has never use any other similar promo code when signing up, including the Luno Refer A Friend promo code.

  3. Hi, I realised that based on the USD price for Bitcoin the exchange rate to buy in RM is about 4.6. Not able to find any info on the site on the exchange rate. Since, you have bought and sell, hope you can share the info on what the exchange rate used when selling. Appreciate it. Thank you.

    1. Hi Mor,

      Thank you for your comment.

      When I registered myself as a Luno Malaysia customer, all my trade (buy/sell) on the Luno platform will be conducted in local currency, that is Malaysia Ringgit (RM). There is no exchange rate involved.

      For example, when I want to sell my Bitcoin, I can either choose based on the Bitcoin amount or the RM amount. And the Bitcoin sell price will be based on the current Bitcoin price published on the Luno Malaysia website. I attached a print-screen below:

      Luno Malaysia Instant Sell Bitcoin

      So, there’s no exchange rate involved for all my trades on the Luno platform.

      Hope this helps. Do let me know if you still have enquiries. Thank you.

    1. Hi Nancie.H,

      Thank you for your comment.

      May I know, after you entered my luno promo code LNMICH50, did you see the next screen showing ‘buy myr500 worth of crypto’ and ‘you get myr50 in Bitcoin’?

      If yes, may I know if your crypto purchase is completed through Instant Buy?

      If yes and if it is ok for you, please drop me an email at yan6500 [at] Gmail [dot] com. I’ll try to guide you further from there.

      Hope this helps.

  4. Hello Michelle, I’ve decided to put don’t $500 on crypto. How much is the fees difference between putting $100 into 5 types of crypto vs all $500 into Bitcoin?

    1. Hi Daniel,

      Thank you for your comment.

      Based on my experience, I was charged about 2% for all my crypto transactions (buy and sell) through Luno Malaysia Instant Buy/Sell feature. I’ve bought and sold Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple and Litecoin through Luno Instant Buy/Sell. So, you can do some calculation before confirming your crypto purchases.

      Before you proceed to confirm your crypto purchases, Luno will show you a screen with the service charge stated. You may refer to the print screen in my write up above for the service fee of about RM5.98 (2%) when I tried to buy RM299 worth of Bitcoin on Luno Instant Buy. And for buying Ethereum through the Luno Instant Buy, please refer to another print-screen as below.

      null.

      After you agree with the service charge, you may proceed to click confirm.

      Luno also offers buying crypto through Luno Exchange with a different set of trading fees. But, to be eligible for the promo code of free RM50 worth of Bitcoin, the new user is required to complete a minimum of RM500 crypto purchase through the Instant Buy feature. And please take note of all the Terms & Conditions as mentioned in my write up above to be eligible for the rewards of RM50 worth of Bitcoin.

      Hope my explanation above helps. Let me know if you still have any enquiries.

    1. Hi Tan,

      Thank you for your comment and for using my Luno Promo Code. Great to know your Luno account is now verified.

      Yes, after deposit your money in Luno wallet, please use the Luno Instant Buy/Sell feature to be eligible for the RM50 free Bitcoin.

      Do let me know if you have further enquiries. Thanks again.

      1. What is the plan u have in Luno? Buy n hold long term? Is there any tax been taxed on the price appreciate or from trade transactions n make a profit? Since it is regulated by SC?

        1. Hi again Tan,

          I mostly buy and hold long term for my cryptos. But, occasionally I do take profits.

          As for the tax part, currently, active traders are required to declare their gains to be taxed.

          For more details, you may refer to the article from The Edge Market, TheWall: Profited from trading bitcoin? Find out if you need to pay taxes.

          Personally, I still think it’s best for crypto owners to keep a proper record of all crypto transactions. Because tax requirements might change from time to time.

  6. I see the withdrawal fee structure only show Giro RM0.10. Can withdraw cryptocurrency? What if I want to transfer my Eth to my cold wallet?

    1. Hi Van,
      Thank you for your comment.

      If you withdraw MYR currency from your Luno Malaysia wallet to your Malaysia bank account through Interbank GIRO (IBG), the fee is RM0.10. It may take up to two business days for the fund to reflect in your bank account.

      From my experience, I made the withdrawal request on a Friday at noon, the request was approved at about 5:30 pm. On that same late evening, the fund is available in my bank account. The fee of RM0.10 was deducted from my Luno MYR wallet.

      As for transferring your ETH to your cold wallet, the fee is ‘dynamic’. This means the fee varies depending on the network traffic.

      Hope my sharing above helps.
