Maybank enables Singapore, Malaysia card users to link with ApplePay

This includes users of Mastercard and Visa credit, debit, and prepaid cards.

Maybank and Maybank Islamic card users in Singapore and Malaysia can now use their Mastercard and Visa credit, debit, and prepaid cards with ApplePay.

Through this, card members will benefit from access to a “safe, contactless, and easy way to pay,” Maybank said in a press announcement.

“With our growing presence in this business segment, supported by the combined card user base of 15 million across both markets, Maybank is well placed to leverage the ease, safety and privacy of Apple Pay that would benefit our customers in both countries,” said Dato’ John Chong Eng Chuan, Maybank Group Chief Executive Officer, Community Financial Services.

To use this service, customers only need to hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near a payment terminal to make a contactless payment.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
