Samsung Malaysia Electronics (SME) Sdn Bhd (Samsung) and Malayan Banking Berhad (Maybank) today announced a strategic partnership through the signing of a Collaboration Agreement, marking a major milestone in Malaysia’s digital payments landscape with the introduction of the country’s first Samsung Wallet QR Payment experience.
The collaboration combines Samsung’s mobile innovation with Maybank’s leading digital banking ecosystem to deliver a faster, more seamless way for Samsung Galaxy users to make everyday payments.
Beginning 21 July 2026, eligible Samsung Galaxy users will be able to access Maybank’s MAE Scan & Pay functionality, natively within Samsung Wallet through its latest update.
As Malaysia continues to accelerate towards a cashless economy, the partnership underscores both companies’ shared commitment to driving exceptional experiences and digital payment adoption to make
everyday transactions simpler, more secure and more convenient for millions of customers across both urban and suburban communities.
“At Samsung, our vision for Samsung Wallet has always been to go beyond a digital wallet and become an intelligent everyday companion that simplifies life for our users,” said Charles Kim, President of Samsung Malaysia Electronics.
“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.”
