Digi Telecommunications Sdn Bhd (Digi) has introduced a mobile payment terminal for Malaysian businesses. These mobile payment terminal allow businesses to receive card-based payments for products and services without needing to be tethered to a physical phone line.

“The customer landscape is becoming increasingly digital and businesses need to keep pace with this change. As more people choose to go cashless, businesses need to position themselves to take full advantage of this. Cashless payments today are quick, secure and extremely convenient so it’s a matter of time before the use of payment cards and e-wallets skyrocket,” said Eugene Teh, Digi’s Chief Business Officer (CBO).
“We want to help businesses step into this digital world so we are rolling out digital solutions and key strategic partnerships for businesses to capitalise on. Today we are happy to announce a partnership with one of Malaysia’s largest banks, CIMB, to bring added convenience to our Enterprise Business (EB) customers. We envision similar partnership in this direction.” Teh said.
