hope those who attend other banks agm also ask in agm

Looks like no AP for MY in the upcoming release

I can't fathom how BXM can approve this for child use in school were it can easily be stolen by other student but they can't comprehend the security in Apple Pay

Malaysia Boleh!

BXM has not been approached by said bank for approval. Article mentioned "currently working on" =/= gotten BXM approval or even evaluation. Just like any other stuff, as long internally or personally trying (with no real world consequences), you do not need the lawmaker/regulator for any approval.

But if BXM approved this, I wonder what said bank did right vs what our "panel" AP banks did wrong that BXM keep wanting for answers.
At most, I personally would only allow this card to be a prepaid card that parents can control. Not even linked to any CASA or even Visa/Master/MyDebit. Just like TnG card but with online control will do.

Not AP but watch payment by petrol co.

Now just wondering what are those ppl holding back on launching AP

A prepaid card would better, as mentioned in the article, parents can set a limit.

But how bold of BSN to announce such plans of launching a device holding Bank Card info without high security/authentication

No different than giving the kids a TouchNGo card LOL

Quite different if it links to Bank Card, such as how BSN wanna do it

Its just a bank card which is definitely limit control and prepay, the mechanism is still the same. Just that one a bank holds your deposits whilst the other an ewallet player holds your deposits. Both also offer you interest (although TnG now offers you a higher interest). At the end of the day, the fundamental is a cashless way to transact, regardless of the medium or where the money is stored or controlled.

Interesting. Apple with Watch.

Maybe Setel app later will add button “Add to Wallet” for NFC payment 😂

There was a leak screenshot, its just the Setel app for the watch, so you just purchase fuel through the app on the watch rather than your phone :/

Now that Grab won one of the digital banking license, possible that they bring this feature over that already exist in Singapore once they release their own card here?

Maybe? But you need to wait for 2 years

Probably the first thing is they offer own grab debit and credit card but not cobrand with maybank

seems like it's pretty close but still a very generic response.

Any most recent update bro?

i think if we can get everyone to keep sending enquiries to Apple and Maybank directly, and not depending solely on the petition. Will probably garner more attention directly at Maybank and Apple that there is a demand for Apple Pay in Malaysia

They are already working on it and its currently awaiting for certain decisions from Bank Negara according to the insider sources here in the forum
