This collaboration marks the first ‘e-wallet payment option at service stations in Malaysia, made possible by WeChat Pay Malaysia.
WeChat Pay is one of the most widely used payment methods in China, and is fast gaining popularity in Malaysia.
The e-wallet only requires users to flash the phone at the counter, thus allowing customers to go cashless and even cardless.
"We are confident that customers will enjoy this new safe, easy, and convenient e-wallet shopping experience. We hope that more consumers will have the opportunity to experience Petron’s Fuel Happy hospitality, while gaining more satisfying rewards using Petron fuels and from the services we have introduced. This is in line with our commitment to provide consumers more benefits and rewards," said Petron head of retail business Choong Kum Choy at the official launch of the e-wallet payment option at a Petron station in Bandar Utama, Petaling Jaya.
Also present were WeChat Pay Malaysia CEO Jason Siew and Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs deputy secretary general (Domestic Trade) Badrul Hisham Mohd.
Bringing together this collaboration between Petron Malaysia and WeChat Pay Malaysia is Revenue Monster Sdn Bhd, a payment solutions provider and the first appointed merchant acquirer of WeChat Pay in Malaysia, to facilitate WeChat Pay transactions.
