Finance app BigPay has announced that it now supports cross-border QR payments between Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. This means that
If you’re already familiar with using the DuitNow QR code system, then paying in Thailand and Singapore won’t be any different. On the BigPay app, just tap on the DuitNow QR button and scan the merchant’s NETS or PromptPay QR code.
After that, you can enter the amount in the local currency and it will show you the currency conversion in Malaysian Ringgit before you approve the payment. Once you’ve reviewed the details, just click on “pay” and you’re done. This is quite useful for making cashless payments at small stalls that might not have the capacity or the logistical ability to have card terminals.Of course, you need to preload the e-wallet in BigPay with cash in order to use the app for QR payments.
To sign up for BigPay, you’ll need to download the app and then verify your face and identification document. After then, you’ll need to pay RM20 for an initial top-up for your account to get activated as well as for you to receive a physical debit card.
