Scope

- To strengthen consumer confidence in card-based payments, Bank Negara Malaysia introduced the Malaysian Chip Card Specification initiative in 2014 for the migration of domestic debit cards to the EMV standard. As part of the initiative, the central bank prohibited the use of signature-based payments from July 1, 2017. In addition, to encourage individuals to make card payments, the central bank prohibits retailers from imposing surcharges on debit and credit card payments. And to further promote card payments, the central bank has introduced contactless functionality to domestic debit card scheme MyDebit.
- In an attempt to increase card usage, in July 1, 2015 Bank Negara Malaysia introduced a regulation to cap interchange fees charged by domestic debit card schemes at 0.15% of the transaction value (subject to a maximum interchange fee of MYR0.50 [$0.12] + 0.01% per transaction). Debit cards issued by international schemes are capped at 0.21% of the transaction value (subject to a maximum of MYR0.70 [$0.17] + 0.01% per transaction). The interchange fee for credit cards is capped at 1.10% of the transaction value, with plans to reduce it further to 0.48% from January 1, 2021. The central bank has waived interchange fees for any payments made via domestic debit cards to the government or its agencies until December 31, 2020.
- To offer convenient payments for e-commerce purchases, in April 2017, Maybank launched a new payment gateway targeting ecommerce entrepreneurs - particularly SMEs. Maybank2u Pay enables merchants to accept online payments via online banking platform Maybank2u. Merchants will be able to integrate the payment gateway into their website so that they can receive online payments from their customers. Similarly, in March 2016 Visa launched its checkout service, Visa Checkout, in Malaysia. The solution enables users to store their credit and debit card details as well as their shipping address in order to make instant payments.
