Through Alipay+, Ant International’s unified wallet gateway, and its partnership with PayNet, Malaysia’s national payment network, international travellers can use their home e-wallets and bank apps to pay seamlessly at millions of merchants across Malaysia. As Malaysia celebrates Visit Malaysia 2026, the partnership is delivering tangible economic impact: in the first half of 2026, more than 600,000 merchants, primarily SMEs, received payment from an Alipay+ partner — up more than 70% year-on-year. Total traveller spending via DuitNow rose more than 60%, with Alipay+ being the largest contributor to inbound QR transactions in Malaysia. In the next step of the partnership, Malaysian payment apps supported by PayNet will be able to making payments at over 150 million merchants in more than 220 markets connected to Alipay+.
