e-money Payment Instrument in Malaysia


e-money is a type of payment instrument where it contains monetary value that has been paid in advance by the end-user.

With e-money, end-users can purchase goods and services from merchants. When users pay using e-money, the amount will be automatically deducted from their e-money balance.
