Starting today, TNG eWallet can be used by refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia. TNG Digital has collaborated with UNHCR to enable those who have difficulty accessing financial services to use the TNG eWallet application.
Among the services they can now do are making payments, filling up eWallet carts, receiving funds, transferring funds and using the application to withdraw money from ATM machines. The service was activated after TNG Digital signed a memorandum of understanding with UNHCR earlier.
Refugees and asylum seekers face systemic barriers to financial services, exposing them to economic instability and social exclusion. As of the end of May 2024, there were 192,170 refugees and asylum seekers registered with UNHCR in Malaysia.
