TNG Digital Sdn. Bhd., the operator of Malaysia’s leading digital financial services and lifestyle app, TNG eWallet, and EPOS, the all-in-one SME transformation platform of Ant International, have jointly announced the launch of EPOS360 in Malaysia, with a suite of AI-powered growth tools and unique payment capabilities to support the digitalisation of Malaysian businesses, particularly SMEs.
CEO of MDEC, Anuar Fariz Fadzil, said, “The launch marks an important milestone in Malaysia’s business digitalisation journey, ensuring that businesses of all sizes have access to affordable, relevant and easy-to-adopt digital tools to scale sustainability and compete more effectively.
“By embedding AI-powered business tools and innovative payment capabilities into a platform that millions of Malaysians already use, this initiative enables digital entrepreneurs to participate more meaningfully in the digital economy and supports Malaysia’s aspiration to become an AI Nation by 2030.”
He added that as MDEC celebrates its 30th anniversary this year of championing Malaysia’s digital economy, initiatives like this directly support the nation’s agenda by ensuring businesses remain resilient, competitive, and future-ready.
EPOS360 launches as a mini-programme in TNG eWallet, giving Malaysian SMEs direct access to AI-powered tools, integrated payments, and marketing capabilities in one place.
Through TNG eWallet’s Near Me vouchers, merchants can reach over 25 million users while managing key business functions seamlessly within a single solution.
Alan Ni, Chief Executive Officer of TNG Digital, said, “SMEs are at the heart of Malaysia’s economy. Our role at TNG Digital is to remove barriers and make growth easier. By bringing EPOS360 into TNG eWallet, we are giving businesses simple, trusted tools to reach more customers, run their businesses better, and grow within an ecosystem that millions of Malaysians use every day.”
As part of EPOS360, TNG Digital and EPOS are introducing EPOS360 BlueTap, a smart over-the-counter device that supports multiple payment methods at a single terminal.
For the first time in Malaysia, via BlueTap, consumers can tap-to-pay with TNG eWallet, which also supports DuitNow QR codes, major eWallets, and, soon, card payments.
This helps merchants through clear audio payment confirmation at the point of sale, giving businesses immediate assurance that a transaction is successful, reducing missed payments or manual checks, particularly during peak hours, integration with the TNG eWallet ecosystem, enabling access to point-of-sale features and transaction insights for a simpler and more reliable checkout experience while supporting business growth and supporting trusted acceptance across banks and major eWallets in one device, accommodating additional payment types over time without frequent hardware changes
Malaysian SMEs can access EPOS360 solutions directly within the TNG eWallet they know and trust, tapping into its significant digital user base, and engage them using a range of AI-powered solutions that will be progressively introduced to support every stage of the SME journey.
From online setup, with AI Copilot easily creating online menus from photos or descriptions, to marketing services, to deployment across digital channels, like in-app or Google Maps.
Create customised campaigns, vouchers, and marketing materials via AI, and simultaneously launch across in-app channels, including the TNG eWallet in-app marketing services such as the Near Me feature. With this, SMEs can directly engage millions of consumers with relevant and timely promotions.
Alan Wang, CEO of EPOS and Vice President of Ant International, said, “SMEs are the heart of our communities, and yet they face very real challenges in an increasingly competitive environment. Digitalisation is no longer a nice to have, and we believe that by putting the right technology into the hands of SMEs, we can empower them to unlock new and exciting opportunities.
“We’re excited to partner with TNG Digital, Malaysia’s biggest mobile ecosystem to bring this vision to reality, and jointly accelerate the growth and transformation of local SMEs. Moving forward, Ant International, through EPOS, will significantly accelerate its strategy to drive SME digitalisation in Southeast Asia and beyond.”
EPOS360 is an industry-first solution that brings together AI, enhanced payment capabilities, financial services, and more into one platform, making it easy for SMEs to transform and grow in the digital era. It has launched in Malaysia and will soon launch in Singapore.
This initiative is supported by the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) as part of its ongoing efforts to advance Malaysia’s digital economy.
