Congrats, BigPay x Alipay!

Within the fintech sphere, we celebrate innovations and achievements. And there is nothing more relevant today than reuniting a fragmented but globalised world through cross-wallet collaboration.

If you haven’t heard, Malaysian e-wallet Bigpay has just announced a partnership with Chinese e-commerce giant Alipay, offering direct money transfer from one wallet to another. That’s a significant breakthrough.

We anticipate more and more such collaborations. What does this mean to local businesses and consumers? Well, more competition means more competitive fees, and that bodes well for the growth and accessibility of sustainable payments moving forward.

1. It’s fast - REAL fast ⚡

Conventional, old-school telegraphic transfers usually take one or two working days. With BigPay x Alipay, we get your transfer done within 15 minutes.

That’s faster than one episode of your typical Korean drama. Speedier than a shower (a proper one, of course!). Quicker than your average pizza delivery. You get the point - it’s fast!

If you haven’t heard, BigPay’s exchange rates on international transfers are some of the best in the market. Find out for yourself - your first transfer is absolutely free!

We like giving you the upper hand when it comes to managing your money. That’s why BigPay charges a fixed fee of RM23 per transfer regardless of the amount.

In other words, the more you transfer, the more you save!
