This arrangement was in line with the launch of the country’s digital economy blueprint, MyDIGITAL, with Phase 1 focusing on building the foundation for digital adoption.

According to MyDIGITAL Corp CEO Fabian Bigar, as of July 2021, a total of 57 government agencies went cashless.

This means you no longer have to carry wads of cash whilst running errands that require payment for government services.

This includes paying for traffic summonses, taxes, immigration fees, and more.

Besides the obvious convenience, no minimum amount is required when making cashless transactions via services like MyDebit, DuitNow QR, FPX, JomPAY and DirectDebit.

E-payment options

With your ATM card, simply make the payment by entering your PIN number or tapping your card at the Point-of-Sale (POS) terminal.

Or, use any participating e-wallet or mobile banking service to scan Malaysia’s National QR code, DuitNow QR.

Online banking methods such as FPX, JomPAY and DirectDebit are especially useful when making payments from home.

For instance, you may use FPX to make payments via online or mobile banking by using funds from your savings or current account.

Similarly, you can pay for bills with participating billers through JomPAY, instead of having to queue at the post office.

Finally, recurring payments can be arranged by setting up DirectDebit to enable automated payments.
