Scope

• To offer faster payments, PayNet (in partnership with ACI Worldwide) launched the DuitNow real-time payment platform in December 2018. The system allows users to make instant credit transfers 24/7 using the recipient's mobile phone number or another identification number. By the end of December 2019, almost 8 million users had registered for DuitNow. In July 2019, a new payment solution called DuitNow QR was launched. Through DuitNow QR, users can make in-store payments from any participating banks or e-wallets. Public Bank was the first to adopt the system, while GrabPay became the first e-wallet provider to do so.
• In order to further drive financial inclusion in the country, the central bank is putting more emphasis on digital banking. The bank released its exposure draft on the licensing framework for digital banks in December 2019. The document proposes simplified regulatory requirements and defines minimum capital, capital adequacy, and liquidity requirements to be maintained by digital banks. Delayed by the pandemic, the bank plans to release its final policy document in the coming months. Once the policy framework is finalized the bank intends to issue five digital banking licenses, which are expected to go live in 2021. In June 2020 the central bank released a policy document on e-KYC to promote digital onboarding among financial institutions.
• In accordance with the central bank's Payment Card Reform Framework dated December 23, 2014, scheme providers are gradually reducing interchange fees. Effective from January 1, 2019 the revised interchange fee on Mastercard and Visa credit cards was set at 0.675%, compared to 1.037% in 2017. Also effective from January 1, 2019, American Express revised its interchange fee on credit cards to 0.575%. Reduced interchange fees are helping to boost payment card acceptance among merchants.
