MAYBANK ISLAMIC AND TM FORGE PARTNERSHIP TO DELIVER FIRST ISLAMIC BANKING AS A SERVICE SOLUTION POWERED BY 5G
KUALA LUMPUR, 15 FEBRUARY 2024: Maybank Islamic Berhad and TM, the nation’s leaders in Islamic banking and telecommunications, have forged a partnership to deliver the country’s first Islamic Banking as a Service (BaaS) solution powered by 5G. Designed for consumers and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), this collaboration combines the best of Maybank Islamic’s diverse financial services and TM’s recognised Uni5G Postpaid Biz mobile packages, creating seamless access and experiences for today’s digital customers. With local entrepreneurs and MSMEs to gain the most, Maybank Islamic and Unifi Business, TM’s digital business solutions arm, today launched their inaugural ‘Go Niaga’, a mobile business banking bundle to help businesses manage finances, improve incomes and offer digital payment options powered by secure 5G connectivity and networks. The bundle will address current market gaps among this segment, and enable businesses to better participate in e-Commerce and expand their customer reach. Dato’ Mohamed Rafique Merican, Maybank Islamic’s CEO, said, “This partnership between Malaysia's largest telecommunications company and the country's leading Islamic banking institution opens up unique opportunities for us in delivering Islamic banking services to customers. This partnership is a significant step forward in financial inclusion. By embedding Maybank Islamic’s BaaS solutions within Unifi Business’ platforms, previously unbanked or underbanked individuals and businesses will gain access to Maybank’s essential financial services and 5G mobile connectivity through TM’s cutting-edge technologies.” “While the technology originates from the BaaS concept, what makes it unique is its adherence to Islamic principles, making it the pioneering example of its kind in Malaysia. It combines modern technology with the ethical requirements of Islamic finance, providing innovative and faith-based financial services,” he said. Shanti Jusnita Johari, Chief Commercial Officer for Consumer Strategy & Business at Unifi, said, “MSMEs are a key growth engine for the nation’s economy. At present, this segment accounts for nearly 38% of Malaysia’s GDP, yet their potential is often dimmed by limited access to digital tools and financial services. This is even more apparent among underserved segments, micro and small businesses who face the most challenges in accessing financial services and digital innovations that are necessary to elevate their lives and livelihoods. “As a trusted partner to more than 400,000 MSMEs across the nation, we believe this partnership is a timely intervention to effectively address these challenges and help local businesses seize the opportunities of the digital economy. This partnership is the next milestone in our vision to become a digital powerhouse by 2030 and our mission to power a Digital Malaysia, improving businesses and communities through technology, and paving the way for a digitally inclusive nation,” Shanti shared. Highlights of Maybank Islamic and Unifi Business’ Go Niaga offering As the first bundle from Maybank Islamic and Unifi Business’ joint collaboration, the Go Niaga mobile business banking bundle aims to address the essential banking needs of local entrepreneurs and MSMEs. To help local businesses streamline their operations, the Go Niaga bundle offers: a) A lower minimum deposit of only RM 100 for customers to open an SME First Account-i – allowing them to clearly segregate their personal and business accounts that will help improve their long term credit rating. b) Payment acceptance facilities through Maybank Islamic’s QRPay Biz, and Tap2Phone – enabling cloud POS via mobile devices to facilitate digital / card payments. c) Credit Facilities including Maybank Islamic’s SME Digital Financing: Aspirasi Wanita Programme – providing more entrepreneurs access to funds that could help them stabilise and expand their business. d) Uni5G Postpaid Biz 39, Uni5G Postpaid Biz 55 and Uni5G Postpaid Biz 89 mobile plans bundled with free 5G mobile devices – ensuring secure access to financial services anywhere, anytime and bringing 5G capabilities to more communities. e) Cash rebates for Unifi Mobile bills when customers sign up and activate Maybank Tap2Phone merchant payment facility bundled with Uni5G Postpaid Biz packages. This initial offering will be made available from 21 February until 29 May 2024.

unifi set to bring more #khabarbaik news in 2019
unifi committed to raise the bar with positive changes via #khabarbaik movement unifi, the premier Convergence brand under Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) today shared its plan for 2019 through its #khabarbaik movement, which is set to bring more good news Malaysians nationwide. The #khabarbaik movement was unveiled by Moharmustaqeem Mohammed, Acting Executive Vice President, unifi. Apa khabar? unifi says #khabarbaik The #khabarbaik movement represents unifi’s commitment to continue raising the bar on its products and services as unifi constantly innovates and understands its customers’ needs. unifi hopes that the movement will be a shift in attitude and approach that seeks to spread positivity, and this has been implemented internally since the beginning of 2019. #khabarbaik is the attitude that will be embraced by each and every employee of unifi that will translate to how the business is run and the positive changes it will bring to consumers and Malaysia at large. According to Mohar: “As we kick start the year 2019, this has been a very exciting juncture for unifi. Even as we continue to evolve as an organisation, our commitment has and will always be to enable digital adoption and a converged lifestyle for all – across all backgrounds and income groups. We have contributed a great lot to the country’s digital development and we think that is worth celebrating. In the meantime, we will continue to work hard to address customer pain points. We will keep listening and then, come back to market with more #khabarbaik. That is why the #khabarbaik movement is our way forward to serve Malaysia through our product offerings and design a better customer experience.” First #khabarbaik of 2019 Living up to its promise of delivering good news to Malaysia, unifi also unveiled the brand new unifi Mobile postpaid lineup, designed with every Malaysian in mind. “unifi aspires for every Malaysian household to be seamlessly connected to their favourite content and services. However, we understand that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach as each member of the family will have different data consumption. From the teenager who consumes many videos on the move, parents with young ones that love to explore educational content online, to the grandparent who uses data primarily to keep in touch with their family members – unifi Mobile’s newest plans aim to enable every individual’s unique digital lifestyle, just at the right price points,” Mohar shared. With the latest unifi Mobile offering, ‘Adik’, who might not need as much data, can opt for a smaller mobile data plan of 2GB (1GB LTE + 1GB 3G) at only RM19. The unifi Mobile 19 plan also comes with five (5) minutes talk time and 25 SMS. Meanwhile, ‘Atuk’ or ‘Nenek’ could opt for unifi Mobile 29 and ‘Kakak’ can choose unifi Mobile 39 which offers 3GB (2GB LTE + 1GB 3G) and 5GB (4GB LTE + 1GB 3G) respectively – along with 50 minutes talk time and 25 SMS. As for those who are happy with 10GB data, they can subscribe to the unifi Mobile 59 plan that comes with 9GB LTE + 1GB 3G, 100 minutes talk time, and 25 SMS. These tailored plans will ensure that everyone has just the right plan they need – not too much, not too little. These new offerings will join unifi’s existing unifi Mobile 99 plan which offers never ending data, calls, and SMS. Now Malaysians will have more options to choose from when looking for a postpaid plan. The full range of unifi Mobile offerings are available for purchase on unifi’s website at unifi.com.my By introducing simpler and more affordable plans, open for subscription to all Malaysians, unifi is able to make internet connectivity more accessible to all citizens, ensuring that Malaysians from all walks of life are able to benefit from the digital lifestyle. “This is definitely aligned to what we hope to spread with #khabarbaik. It is our commitment to ensure that access to internet connectivity is affordable and seamless for all. We hope that by introducing value add plans like the unifi Mobile 19, we can enable more Malaysians to adopt digital technology into their lifestyle,” said Mohar. Updates on unifi turbo and Streamyx upgrades In another exciting update, aggressive speed upgrading exercise to unifi packages are currently ongoing for existing Streamyx customers residing in unifi coverage areas. Meanwhile, for Streamyx customers in non-unifi coverage areas, TM is committed to bring high speed broadband to them through alternative technologies by TM or other infrastructure providers. Where technology permits, TM is doubling the Streamyx speed at the same price of their current broadband plan. “In total, about 1 million are eligible for the turbo upgrading exercise. Existing unifi customers will see up to a tenfold speed boost with the turbo upgrades; from 10Mbps to 100Mbps, from 30Mbps to 300Mbps, from 50Mbps to 500Mbps, and from 100Mbps to 800Mbps – all at the same rates that they are currently paying. To date, we have successfully upgraded over 910,000 unifi customers and more than 66% of over 340,000 Streamyx customers residing in unifi coverage areas to unifi; at the same price of their current plan. The rest of the 130,000 Streamyx customers who have yet to grab this opportunity for the free upgrade are encouraged to do so. We aim to complete this speed upgrading exercise by March 2019. In the meantime, we do acknowledge that some upgraded customers are facing speed hiccups which we are resolving soonest possible,” Mohar elaborated. “In the coming year, we promise to deliver more #khabarbaik in the form of greater connectivity, seamless customer experience, and an all-round digital lifestyle to all parts of Malaysia,” he concluded.
