iirc, hye did mention on ewallet TS to apply for topic creation. not sure the progress nowadays since few ewallet are getting off the ground with active discussions and promotions from emoney issuers.

e.g.

Boost, previously in /kopitiam, now in here
TNG eWallet, slowly taking traction, currently lightly discussed in TNG Card topic
WeChat MY, already in progress here
BigPay in CC thread, some see it as either ewallet or prepaid card
GrabPay, little to none discussion. Fave, not sure if it's even considered as ewallet at all

should mods/admin create subforum for all ewallet discussions or keep as individual ewallet topics; either in Finance subforum or in CC subforum

I saw v1 already closed.

also fave doesnt seems to store monetary value, just cc bypass. not really true ewallet. agreed, more like payment app.

there are differences between open-loop and close-loop mobile payment apps/systems.

those with close-loop is whereby the "money" and earned cashback/reward must be used for its own (merchant-specific). e.g. starbucks reward card. nobody called it ewallet. reason is you reload into it, use within sbux, and earn rewards within sbux too. you cannot use sbux credit for other things. iinm, fave and lazada wallet is the same. fave charge via cc passthrough. the new petronas setel app is the same too, can only use to pump at petronas, nothing else.

those truly ewallet is whereby it's open-loop, the credit/rewards can be used outside of its own domain/ecosystem. e.g. boost, tng ewallet, grabpay etc.

probably tesco need time to change the software and dont want to reinvest much into it

anyhow, for tesco terminal, there are 3 options: [Cash] [Debit/Credit Card] [Coupon]

choose [Debit/Credit Card] and let the GHL scanner scan your qr code.

so far, the terminal seems buggy and not always work reliably.

just wondering about this .... how do Boost determine the "success"?

1) fund tansferred?
2) "yellow pie" icon changed to "green tick" icon?<-- this would take a few days to get updated after fund transfer though.

thanks for sharing the tips.

so, looks like the "lock" is by bank account #, not at boost-account level.

mine for few days

all integration is done by GHL, they've been actively integrating with ewallet players into their system, so that their POS merchants "instantly" gets connected to variety of ewallet. without GHL's part, each merchant need to integrate directly with each ewallet, which is tedious, time consuming, etc.

sometime next year. this year is early stage of ICTF which encompasses few payment initiatives.

duitnow is actively promoted because banks are "forced" to go live by year 2018

yep definitely cannot same-day back to back, since max daily limit already reached.

https://www.myboost.com.my/year-end-shopping-spree/

not same-day settlement. either T+1 or the usual T+2. if boost late process payment (eg after 5pm), then +1 more business day to "see" the money.

this only happens on first few days of business. on subsequent days, seller still get money in their acct, but for past 1-2 days' sales, but perceived as "daily".

most sellers don't like ewallet because of this as they prefer cash for material purchase which is also in cash term.

now zero MDR/fee "promo" + incentive to use. still ok. just need to learn to use and acceptance.

once boost begin to charge MDR/fee, small hawkers definitely won't like it.

Fave has integration with Boost as payment option

assuming they follow IBG schedule, you wont get it that fast ... try check later in the afternoon/evening.

payment advice email is just "FYI", it could be sent late, sent by maybank2e since boost using m2e bulk transfer.

it's still subjected to any rejection from m2e too.
