QR code payment?
Well, could be redundant since it has the physical card.
Nah, there's already too much competition in the e wallet segment.
There's still tons of potential for NFC mobile payments since there are only little to few competitors (Samsung Pay, Maybank Pay, CIMB Pay) around and it's still a "new" thing here although it has been available here like years ago...

They don’t need it at the moment, mastercard is so much convenience and better than nfc locally
What I meant was linking the card to the app and use it for NFC payments at Mastercard accepted merchants...
It's like a virtual prepaid card for NFC, and then you also have a physical one if you wanna do the usual way.
I swear they stated that they were planning to introduce NFC payment feature like way back ago when they just started, and after so many years has passed, it's about time they do it.
NFC payments, although had tons of potential, failed to gain traction because of the implementation from competitors. Although the only successful one so far is Samsung Pay, it's still exclusive only to Samsung phones. Pretty sure Bigpay is able to revive the NFC payment solution if they implement it well.
