OVER the last few months, many Malaysians have begun warming up to the idea of eWallets as an alternative to cash. But while response to eWallets has been encouraging, there are some who face difficulty in making that lifestyle change as cash has been a very constant part of our lives up until now.
Recognising this, the Government and industry players are working towards addressing the biggest challenges in fostering greater adoption of e-payments. This includes building awareness and trust towards e-payments via outreach programmes, widening e-payment acceptance among smaller merchants and addressing gaps in digital connectivity.
