right time when AW8 to release. Should be Sept timeframe

So what other banks will also support. I don’t use AmBank.

Citibank no luck ahh 😭

With the SMS being disseminated by AmBank earlier today(whether deliberate or not), this leaves the subsequent one to be an international/non-local FI.

If happen, maybe will also same like s pay, slowly add supported bank card
When beta testing only tiger, official launch 4 bank, then now total support 8 banj

Other than add CC into AP, I hope one day we can add tng card into AP for transit.

At 0.15% it is very low indeed. Standard credit card fees that merchants pay for already is at 1% and other ewallets charge a fee of 1% as well. MyDebit is lower at <1% and other forms like AMEX is >1%

Hey all, I just did a simple analysis on the day which Apple Pay was announced in the past (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Pay#Availability) and listed below are the results:

Mon: 1 (2.3%)
Tue: 27 (61.4%)
Wed: 10 (22.7%)
Thu: 6 (13.6%)
Fri: 0 (0.0%)

Total: 44 (some announcements covers >1 countries)
Inferring from the past data above and info from @nokia2003, announcement date for Apple Pay in Malaysia could be as follows:
2 Aug 2022
9 Aug 2022

For reference, Apple Pay in these countries/regions were launched in August:
Macau - 6 Aug 2019
Qatar - 17 Aug 2021

Hope these help. Looking forward to AP's launch in Malaysia!!

Did some further analysis on the Week Of The Month (first day of the month as Week 1) of the past release dates and the results are as follows:
Week 1: 6.8% (3)
Week 2: 22.7% (10)
Week 3: 18.2% (8)
Week 4: 34.1% (15)
Week 5: 18.2% (8)

So I guess past data is pointing towards 9 Aug 2022 more than 2 Aug 2022 (if any of these are correct). With that said, this is based on probability from past data.

Yesterday called Tiger CS for some other matter
at the same time I also asked about AP
he said wait for official announcement (soon)
they also dun have any info but internal rumours spread already
looking forward to August 

9 feels right to me.... but what a long wait! hahaha it's worse when we know the date is coming

let's hope TnG get scared and follow Suica Japan's example. i noticed a lot of parking spaces already accept CC/DC alongside TnG. if the highways and RapidKL start accepting them too (which I heard they're planning to do), then TnG can bungkus already lmao

Just found this from Twitter😗

May I know what makes SP different than AP and why Has SP been available in Malaysia since 2016 and and AP not yet

I went to Subang Parade recently and they have a notice @ their car park entrance there they say do not use Smartphone or Smart Watch to pay for their parking as it's not compatible. Hmmmm. Their "terminal" is the usual blue visa coloured one.

No more TBA on apple pay wikipedia page

I hope that when Apple pay is launched, visa and master card can be added at the same time. I also hope that debit card can also be added, not just credit card. If both are added at the same time, I will be very happy to use Apple pay. If it is partially implemented, it will have to wait. Very sad

Just a heads up on the iOS update to push AP function, just updated to 16 PB2 like 2 hours ago and still nothing, if I had to guess it’ll probably be a microcode OTA that enables it for phones that has the Malaysia region settings as alluded to before.

Anyways, I found something interesting for those understand JSON. Apparently, this is what your phone will request from Apple every time you launch AP.

AP JSON file

Well, continue refreshing this JSON file everyday and hope there’s suddenly MY in there.

Sekian.

Wait you can remove and reinstall wallet app from the app store right? Possible if they just send an app store update for the wallet app and enable AP through there?

ahh that makes sense, but wouldn't software update mean it will be 15.6.1 already?

Edit : Just read your previous comments, maybe they'll do one without an OS version update, don't think just enable AP will warrant another iOS version.

Wouldn't Apple announce it and list all the participating banks first and only then the banks will start rolling out notifications through mobile banking apps?

oh no are we going to end up like mainland china?
