“With more than 300,000 users paying their parking fee with Touch ‘n Go eWallet daily, this expansion will bring good news to more users and our aim is to provide nationwide on-street parking coverage. No more skipping payment for parking, and drivers no longer need to search for parking ticket machines or paper tickets,” said TnG Digital CEO Alan Ni.
Making payment for street parking with TnG eWallet is hassle-free. Users simply have to tap on the Parking icon under “Services” on the eWallet home screen, select “Pay For Parking Now” to choose the location and add vehicle details, and then proceed to make the necessary payment.
To encourage more eWallet users to use the parking payment service on the app, TnG is running a promotional campaign from today until August 4. Users who make parking payments with a minimum spending of RM0.40 using the eWallet’s parking feature during the campaign period will be entitled to a one-time cashback of up to RM0.50. The cashback promotion is valid for the first 250,000 eligible transactions and will cease either when the promotion is fully utilised or when the campaign ends.
On top of that, users who make a minimum of five payments during this period, with a spending of at least RM0.40 each time, will also stand a chance to win exciting prizes such as a Playstation 5, Realme phone, or RM100 reload PINs.

hey almost perfect, but just almost.
Hopefully they can negotiate with more municipals so we can finally have 1 app for all the council parkings in malaysia, or at least most of malaysia.
But we don’t want monopoly…
imagine a perfect scenario where we have 3-4 apps, all able to pay for all parkings in the entire country. That is healthy competition AND good for consumers/us.
this scenario is ideal-
1. have unified app for entire country
2. no impose extra charge or service fee for topup
3. charges are determined by individual states, not by the payment gateway
