Hope so, I've been using Apple pay in Malaysia for the past month and its a hit or miss (Overseas card)

1. Most merchants in KL have their terminal placed towards the customer, so its easy to use Apple Pay. But a lot of merchants in Kl and outside KL still put their terminal beside them behind the counter, hence its inconvenient to use apple pay.

2. Some POS system that merchant use are OLD af. I once bought Tealive at an RnR in Perak I think, same problem as above, the cashier had to bring the terminal to me and after I payed using Apple Pay. The next problem was they want to see the card to manually enter the card's info into the POS system. The payment went through already but still old fashion.

If Maybank do bring Apple Pay, then a lot of things need to change at the merchants level. No more terminal behind counter, no more taking customer's card (Even for paywave, such a weird way to pay, I dont like cashiers taking my card inside, my privacy, my card number etc)

Like samsung pay
Already preintalled on phone after software update on 2016
But cannot use
Then beta test begin after a month

Just wanna ask, normally apple pay partner with Visa/Master/Amex?

What is the limit of using NFC?

AMEX is a must for Apple.
Most region that have Apple Pay have AMEX.
For Visa/MC, it depends on the partnership between Apple and the banks.

Actually how is it different from CC paywave??? Apart from using phone than Credit Card?

It should be treated like a swipe instead of of wave? Wave have the RM200 limit?

Yea wave around 200 - 250 i guess. So apply pay no limit unless ur bank set?

not much of Amex card available here, the only i can think of is Maybank 2 cards.

It seems Apple Pay may be coming soon to Malaysia.
First, many reported in a FB group that there is a new option in iPadOS 13.5.1 that shows Wallet & Apple Pay in Settings.
But cannot add card so far.
And there is also one person who currently uses an iPhone with iOS 13.6 Beta 3 got that new option in Settings.

By the way, all of this is currently on Malaysia region, not other region.
As shown below:
My iPad



That person's iPhone:



And Maybank is also teasing that something existing but a new tech is coming soon.
So is Apple Pay is really coming this time?



I really hope that Apple Pay is finally coming after so many years of waiting.

Maybank is the only bank that holds the license for AMEX.
So Apple have to deal with them in order to support it.
I think it functions the same like Samsung Pay, transaction exceed RM200 will request PIN.
Like my Maybank card, no limit in number of times to tap but only transactions less than 200 no need PIN.
More than that, PIN is required.

got cashback?

if not why want to use this over other payment system with cashback?
