Pricing / Fee

The price shown in QM is inclusive of the 3% mark-up.
You can log into your QM account – under GAE > List > Code.
There is no additional cost incurred other than the 3% mark-up and 3.5% management fee that is paid upfront for the 1st year upon purchase of GAE10X.
Management fee is a financial charge for the outstanding balance that is paid upfront when a client buys GAE10X. It is deferred 2nd year onwards & is to be deducted from profit upon the termination of GAE10X.
Management fee is returnable if a client terminates GAE10X account within 1 year of purchase. The refund amount is to be prorated based on the days the GAE10X is activated.
The management fee is calculated based on 3.5% on the 90% outstanding balance.
Spread is markup – the difference between a product’s selling price and cost. For example, if a product sells for RM125 and costs RM100, the additional price increase is 【(RM125 – RM100) / RM100】 x 100 = 25%.
