haih will all the testing evidence etc. malaysia really bolehland. let’s target 2025

I waited forever for Apple Pay to be rolled out in Malaysia, but it turns out that moving to SG was much faster 🥲

Here are my observed reasons from this thread of these 6 years why Malaysia dont have Apple Pay

2016 - 2017: Malaysia's market too small, Too less iPhone users in Malaysia
2017 - 2018: Banks in Malaysia don't wanna to pay Apple for high amount of handling fee
2019 - 2020: QR Pay is more accpeted than card in Malaysia
2021 - 2022: Bank finally wanna release but BNM keep kacau kacau

New update guys, apple pay will launch real soon, I’ll keep you posted

thanks for the update bro, looking forward!
btw, any ideas:
how many banks?
visa master amex?
transit card support or not? like tng?

I know the exact date when it will launch, but I can’t tell you. Hopefully there won’t be any hiccups like earlier in the year. As far as i know, only one bank will be supporting apple pay at launch.

thanks bro
i maybank?

Which colour bank?

Also, will it support both Debit and credit card?

I have multiple debit cards and am confident that at least one bank from that will be the one you're talking about but if CC, I only use HSBC.

i doubt it is foreign bank. Should be our biggest bank

I hope they support their debit cards then.

I hope they support all range of cards
amex master visa debit credit cards

Is there a approximately range for the launch date? Like aug or sep or before iOS 16 or after iOS 16？

Well, you have been in this thread for quite sometime but your words are almost identical to those other forumers that said the same and then suddenly AP is pushed back again and again.
No, I'm not saying you are pulling our legs because this is the internet, we can say whatever we want and it's up to us to trust your words or not. If it's true, thank you for being the real truth teller all these while.

Anyways, I choose to trust you. What's there to lose?
My questions are
1) Colour of bank (if it has 2 or more colours, also can just mention one of the colour will do to remain anonymous)
2) Credit and debit card supported?
3) If you already know the exact date, why would there be hiccups? Does that mean BNM has approved or going-to-approve AP? If already gotten BNM's greenlight, just let us know too.
4) Q3 or Q4? 2022 right?

Answer as many questions or much details as you can. Don't expose yourself too much. Cheers for the AP community that has been yearning for it for years!


Edit
Bringing back my old post on the JSON file. Gonna refresh it daily for changes. me076310 can confirm that they/you are using this and by seeing there's an "MY" in this, means it's coming/launched?

Lol I doubt Apple Pay is coming soon. I think gpay will be the priority for banks if they even think of it. So no gpay means no Apple Pay logically

why GP over AP? Besides the bigger user audience in MY.
AP is automatically supported across almost all devices since iOS 8.1 (which is theoratically ALL devices in today's standard).
Idk about GP but do enlighten me on why banks would prioritise GP over AP?

Have u seen bank testing gpay in Malaysia? At least we still can see yellow bank testing Apple Pay here tho

market share

I've already mentioned the bolded words and yet, reply me with the same thing. Please tell me something else than this.

The main idea of AP and GP is the contactless function and there's not many NFC Android devices are out there while almost all still-iOS-supported iOS devices can use Apple Pay right out of the box.
