Maybank users in Malaysia are the first in the country to make QR payments through Samsung Wallet.
Eligible Galaxy users can launch Maybank’s MAE Scan & Pay from the digital wallet before completing transactions through the banking app.
The service supports QR payments in Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and Cambodia.
The feature began rolling out on 21 July 2026 and is available on eligible Samsung Galaxy smartphones with the latest wallet and software updates.
Charles Kim, President of Samsung Malaysia Electronics, said,
“Our partnership with Maybank represents a significant step forward in expanding the Samsung Wallet ecosystem in Malaysia.
By bringing QR payments directly into Samsung Wallet, we’re making everyday transactions even more effortless, allowing users to simply swipe, scan and pay within seconds.”
