Actually, how were you "scouted" for this pilot program? Are you working under that bank? or somewhere else?

Wow hello TS! must be fun reading all tens or hundreds of new replies haha.

As for now, Apple Pay is not available yet in MY so hold on. Rumours say next week is the official launch and there were dates that are speculated already. Sit tight and here we go!

Habis. 30+ QRTs and Xavier also RT which leads to more QRTs. Will Apple send a “letter” to Maxis or those Twitter accounts to delete those tweets?

iOS is tightly controlled by Apple and who knows, each dev’s iOS software has a identifier that only Tim Cook or Hair Force One can track.

iPhones on the other hand is manufactured thousands of km away from Cupertino and handled by thousands of “nothing to lose” workers.

Looks like someone got the date accurately.

Xaphier is one of the insider too if you look back starting like last year. So I take his words as accurate.

Ah, kena love letter either from Ma*** or A**** already haha

MBB, pushing/activating "something new" to backend prod? been trying for the past 10mins

Apple don't care. They love Tuesday launches.

Press invites/releases = Tuesdays
Events = Tuesdays (Wed for us as time zone diff)

AT MOST, they gonna say "We are going to launch AP in MY and the service will be available starting 12th August Friday" if they going for the "Friday is product launch day" day.

All the while there. Or maybe because I had SG card in my wallet but to me, it was there since day 1.

I'm on windows lol. Chrome, Edge and Brave do show it.

Yes and no.

but

ahh, I'm lazy to do the bolding and tagging. Read properly each line lah.

Apple being Apple. Die die wants a Tuesday launch.

1am launch = fanatics like us will be going bat shit crazy over it.
8am = tech news media have new content to write about.
9am-10am = banks can announce their support for AP.
by 12pm or 1pm = "everyone" will know that Malaysia finally as AP support.

^ My own guessing only ya. I'm just as hype as you guys.

*edit add
Soon this page will become history. No longer "404".

and MAYBE also these (I edited the links by myself. No guarantee these are the links they are going to use, or FI-s will support AP)
https://www.maybank2u.com.my/maybank2u/mala.../apple_pay.page
https://www.pbebank.com/Personal-Banking/Ca.../Apple-Pay.aspx (If I recall, PBB's Samsung Pay URL is just "../Cards/Samsung-Pay.aspx" and right now it's "../Cards/Samsung-Pay/Samsung-Pay.aspx". Can anyone confirm this?
https://www.sc.com/my/bank-with-us/apple-pay/

Confirm there will be tech youtubers gonna go bonkers on 9th Aug and then by evening that day churn out videos “Apple Pay in Malaysia, official, FIRST TIME” and then tagging all the bank names, FI-s, places they tried. Haha

But no worries, 9th Aug also sure we all fanatics will be doing the same @ outlets that have terminals.

Wait for AW8. You're paying "old tech" for today's price. Plus, AW7 is S6 chip so.... just wait for AW8. Tap with your phone for now. Anyways for tzxsean, you said you are WFH more now so save the money first.

Bonus tip (?)
I have a friend working in one of the AAR in Malaysia. This AAR quite big, many branches across MY. Usually when I ask anything related to Apple, he/she will reply like maybe < 24hrs but... I did ask about AP and if they were given any briefing about it, he/she just


So means, it could be true already. AAR staffs have received news/memo about it and told to keep their mouth shut until Tuesday 1am.

Apple Pay limits when using in stores

Save this link and come back after AP is launched. Most likely it's what fellow forumers below said so

Some places wan physical card, though that might change with the introduction of AP.
Still going to bring my cards along with me especially my AmEx ones as SOME terminals only accept chip entry for AmEx.
Once I feel more and more comfortable with my usual places, MAYBE I will start leaving it at home.
My wallet will then only have
1) IC
2) Driving License
3) 2-3 CCs (for PPL access or AmEx as per reasoning above)
4) 1 debit card of red bank (cash withdrawal incase there's no HLB or MBB ATM nearby for cardless withdrawal)
5) Enhanced TnG. (Come on TnG, put it in AP pls)


AP = wave. Look for those rewards or campaigns or what so ever that says "wave only transactions are counted".
As for the merchant side, depends. You see, sometimes we scan a DNQR with Grab, the merchant just prints out the receipt stating we paid via TnG. So, it really depends but iinm when I started using Wise x AP, I saw the terminal receipt printed Visa (Wise card's network) on the paper.


I wanted to say something else but ambank LEAKED AGAIN!!!!!



Maybe try these POSSIBLE LINKS
