Today, TNG Digital announced a new partnership with the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), to advance financial inclusion for refugees and asylum-seekers in Malaysia. A Memorandum of Understanding between the two parties was signed on World Refugee Day 2024.
With the MoU signed, refugees registered with UNHCR in Malaysia can access a wide range of financial services in the TNG eWallet app. These services include making payments, reloading eWallet balances, receiving and transferring funds, and using the Touch 'n Go eWallet Visa Card for online/offline payments and ATM withdrawals. Additionally, users benefit from enhanced security through the Money-Back Guarantee policy and can earn GOrewards points.
The launch of this initiative was made possible through the generous support of TNG Digital's long-term partners, PayNet and Visa. Their sponsorship played a crucial role in bringing this effort to fruition and kick-starting this journey toward greater financial inclusion. As of the end of May 2024, Malaysia is home to over 192,170 refugees and asylum-seekers registered with UNHCR, primarily from Myanmar and other conflict-affected regions.
