Sarawak Metro, Revenue Group team up on digital payments
KUALA LUMPUR: Sarawak Metro Sdn Bhd has partnered with Revenue Group Bhd to integrate payment tokenisation technology into the former's mobile application.
KUALA LUMPUR: Sarawak Metro, a state-owned company responsible for the Kuching Urban Transportation System (KUTS), has teamed up with Revenue Group Bhd to introduce payment tokenisation technology into its mobile application. The collaboration allows passengers to securely store and use their payment cards and select e-wallets for fare payments, eliminating the need to re-enter payment details for each transaction.
Payment tokenisation replaces sensitive card information with a unique digital identifier, enhancing security during transactions. Malaysian debit cardholders will also benefit from the integration, as the system supports MyDebit Card not present (CNP) payments. This partnership aims to streamline payment processing, offer greater flexibility in payment options, and contribute to the broader adoption of cashless payments in public transport.
The initiative is part of Sarawak Metro's ongoing digital development efforts aimed at modernizing the KUTS system and easing traffic congestion in the Greater Kuching area.
