driftmeister when did you and/or a team delivered the explanation to BNM. I remember saying they should respond within 21 days or something. Is it usual for them to take that long to respond or the response was only sent recently?

Last years rumor says Apple is on discussions to open Malaysia's first apple store on The Exchange TRX Mall which is set to open this year, pointing we might get AP this year hopefully

Opening of an Apple Store != getting Apple Pay.
Look at TH.

BNM busy with that 5 digital banking license la now. Haha. No time/mood for Apple Pay.

Early Jan. On the TaT, bank must follow but they may ehem hem (not follow) ?

I see, well there’s not much we can do here; the only thing we can do is wait and hope they get back. 🙂

Thanks creep for this detailed update. What do you mean by the status on 5th Jan? What does implementation date means? Does it mean that the "code" to use AP is already in the production side just that, for now, if user tries to add your bank's card, it will just deny? Just waiting for Business Team to say ok, and IT side will "flip the switch" to allow us to add the cards?

I'm don't have apple phone. Will try with my wife phone. I checked online only cannot accept malaysia card. Other country card can?

Other supported issuers from supported Apple Pay countries would work; so like a DBS Bank, Singapore (Singapore is an Apple Pay supported country and DBS Bank is a supported issuer). Apple Pay/Wallet is available in Malaysia for membership cards but not for payment cards (debit/credit cards).

Hi, any news from them? Under such circumstances when they no reply, how long would you guys chase/shoot them?😂

not as simple as flip the switch but apple side need like 2 weeks to get it enable from their side.

no news from them yet. initial target early march now kena differed liao....

There’s literally nothing to set up LOL. So I think you heard wrong. I can go to Mydin or 99 or 7-11 or any merchant now that accepts my CC network then it will pass already.

Doesnt make sense. I think I’ve seen a video which looks like Mydin, the person was using AP to pay (somewhere in Johor pre-pandemic times) and it pass/approved.

Unless u mean their own POS and not the terminal?

AP not here yet so people dont know how it works. terminal dont need to have 'AP' category to accept AP. AP is the same as you tapping your CC just that your CC info is digitize into AP thats all

there is no additional settings to add or change in existing terminals
but people will argue about this anyway to stay relevant including the people saying its coming soon™ just waiting for this and that approval altho its been months already and yet no update.

gonna have to unsubscribe to this topic soon since its just clickbaits now haha

you can use AP on any terminal that accepts CC / DC just that the cards will be oversea cards and not malaysian cards. unless you wanna argue that msia terminal so geng they update the terminal to accept oversea AP before msia even have their own AP????

Unsub la. Some of us wants it so badly so we will be like hardcore fans here trying to dig out as much info and try to believe as much info that is spewed here.

Nice. This is the first picture showing tiger bank has a card in it. So yeah, safe to say tiger bank will be one of them that will support AP upon launch? Can’t wait!
