Wait, I thought it's free?

Charging merchants for adopting the service isn't gonna lead to a good outcome, they don't understand the Malaysian mindset, do they?

i don't think it is the official channel to apply. the name itself sounds weird and the url shows that it is not under wechat.
there are just too much unofficial things going on, the worst is in facebook. until official announcement is made, better just sit down and wait.

Actually, I think it is, Revenue Monster is a solution for merchants to adopt e wallet payments, saw that they do provide Wechat Pay, Alipay and TnG app payment solutions. If I'm not wrong, they were there together with BNM and Tencent themselves during the private press conference of Wechat Pay Malaysia last year.

Honestly, after all the half baked stuff and long wait, I'm starting to lose some hope on them, they really suck at managing their launch here. At least have an official public announcement on the news first, Boost up the hype when it's already there, and make a confirmation on the launch date. Now we're just stuck here and hanging without any news at all.

time speaks and let the team do what they think they should do.
i try surfing over the internet, Chinese websites, English websites, Malay websites, all no latest news. Only see news saying that it has been officially launched in June, which sounds very sarcastic now. Anyway, I have stopped to check my wechat wallet on daily basis. just once in a while and tell myself don't expect too much to avoid more disappointment.

Trying to link with credit card only realize not supported. Given the benefit of credit card, i think most of the people will stick to using cc and wave feature are better.

Still don't have switch region option but new option appears!

"2 weeks" deadline will be up soon and I will send them another reminder.

I don't bother anymore if they are opening it here or not, the team is a total failure.

yes, let them know the importance of promise-making.

thanks for the updates bro

And then they're gonna say "another 2 weeks".

2 weeks is their standard answer, no matter when u ask, now or 2 weeks later, the answer still is "2 weeks"

I will keep pestering them and want them to let me know when this "2 weeks" will end.

It is free for Merchant Account. Official account and Merchant account is different

Unless they allow direct link with credit card, otherwise WeChat pay malaysia is going to fail.

Yes, top up the money into the wallet u will loss interest as well.

You can apply BigPay (BigPay allow topup via credit card) then use BigPay to topup your WechatPay.

This is whatost people doing, using big pay and WeChat pay for this loophole, not because they are convenience

So merchant account can be applied through this so called official partner RevenueMonster at no charge?

I don't see the attraction from Bigpay here, it's just your typical prepaid card that can be tracked via the app. The biggest problem for the card is it doesn't have the paywave feature, and it's been overrated on social media for some reason.

Doesn't that make prepaid cards like Mpay and CIMB Lazada card better prepaid card alternatives?
