This ensures our customers can use the TrueMoney e-wallet at even more merchants, giving them a convenient and safe payment option. We now cover a wide range of different merchant categories from F&B and groceries to general retail and so much more. However, we know that this is still the beginning for the brand, and we remain excited to see TrueMoney become a relevant payment option in Malaysia.
