The app shows the card will be delivered in 5-7 days, is there any chance that I will receive it earlier than 5 days?

Excited about the new card.

I see, thanks.

Hope it will be early.

They better not, the reason why I registered for Bigpay is because Aeon Plus couldn't be linked with e wallets like Boost.

Hope it's worth to ditch Aeon for Bigpay, and seeing the situation so far, it's definitely worth it.

I'm just curious, anyone here using Bigpay just as a prepaid card?

What would you do with those Big points? I don't fly that much often lol.

Yeah it's definitely good for youngsters, they can track their spending easily and you can top up for them whenever it's needed.

I see, thanks.

I remember that Bigpay mentioned about implementing NFC to their service when they just started, what happened?

Probably app?

NFC is what they mentioned when they just started their service here.

Just got my card today!

Registered it on Saturday, shipped on Monday night, got it on Tuesday...

That's quicker than I expected.

Thanks...

But really, still no MYR wallet? It's been a while now, have you tried making it appear manually or contact their CS?

Bigpay is prepaid card, Boost and Grabpay are e wallets.

How can it even be related?

Was quite surprised, if Saturday is considered as business day, it only took them 2 days to deliver the card.

Because not everyone needs a prepaid card, or find it to be necessary when there are already DC and CC.

So it's unclear that who will be the winner here, but when it comes to prepaid card service, Bigpay is definitely taking a huge lead over the others.

As for e wallets, it's definitely Boost for now but Grabpay and TnG are trying very hard to compete and catch up.

The e wallet trend will just keep getting bigger from time to time, they just gotta fork out tons of money for promotions like what Boost is doing to retain their user base. Until they can cover the whole Malaysia in terms of merchant acceptance, and majority of Malaysians are using it, then they wouldn't have to worry anymore.

Weird, my friend share his referral code to two persons (including me), and we successfully activated our cards using his code, but he still haven't got prompted to change his old card to the new wave card.

Is it possible that the referral thingy is already over?

He's not gonna purposely fork out 20 bucks for a new card, it's really unfair to users like him who registered for Bigpay when they just started here...

But he got the referral bonus though.

Guess he'll have to be patient for a little while then...

Anyways, thanks!

That's great news...

How did you manage to do that?

I thought it should be referring to 2 persons?

Not the case for my friend, referred to 2 persons, both got the card activated but he didn't get prompted.

Mastercard is accepted almost everywhere around the world, so no worries.

And many Japanese like going cashless, especially using their own Suica card (which is like TnG).

You can kinda blend in their completely cashless society...

Heard that people there buy everything using their cards everyday, even for just a bottle of water. Kinda wish that it could happen here, imagine using Bigpay and e wallets for everything.

The Paypass feature is working just fine, it's either the terminal problem or you didn't pay using PIN before because you need to pay using PIN once when you got your card to enable the Paypass feature (not sure when you got your card though).

Liking it so far!

Btw I just wanna ask about the issue with reloading e wallets, the current issue that many reported is with TnG e wallet. Mind if you can elaborate about why is this happening? I'm not using TnG, but I do use others like Boost, Favepay and Grabpay and they all work flawlessly so far, but I remember that there was a fiasco between Bigpay with Boost which caused users to not be able to reload Boost using Bigpay for a very long time, but I wasn't using Bigpay during that time of course.

Just wanna know the cause of the problem on previous case with Boost and with TnG e wallet currently, and is there a chance that it will happen again in the future?

That's the reason why I ditched my previous Aeon Plus prepaid for Bigpay, because it does what I want and it's a good prepaid card to use for daily purposes.


Submitted mine on Friday night, verified on Saturday, printed on Monday, received it on Tuesday.

It's possible, there's a reason why banking and e wallet apps don't allow the usage for rooted phones...

Yet some people are mad because they face such issue like really, don't whine when worst case scenario happens, rooting might be fun but it comes with some compromises.
