TNG Digital has announced that its Touch ‘n Go eWallet now enables more than 20 million users a seamless payment experience when they travel to popular destinations in mainland China, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Thailand and Indonesia. Besides integrating with Alipay+’s cross-border solutions since 2022, Touch ‘n Go eWallet also supported cross-border DuitNow QR payments with Singapore’s NETS QR, Thailand’s PromptPay and Indonesia’s QRIS.
Prior to this, Touch ‘n Go eWallet users can make cross-border payments across Alipay+ merchant network worldwide and it is also the first Malaysian-based eWallet to be supported in mainland China. The list of supported countries has been expanded which now includes Singapore, Thailand, Macau, Philippines, Australia and more. According to TNG Digital, the cross-border payment expansion demonstrates Touch ‘n Go eWallet and Alipay+’s commitment to enhance convenience for both users and businesses, fostering seamless transactions across borders.
It was also announced this year that Touch ‘n Go eWallet is also accepted by over 10 million Alipay merchants in mainland China via the Alipay+ network. Take note that the feature won’t work with legacy Alipay merchants and it doesn’t support peer-to-peer (P2P) transfers due to regulatory reasons.
