Previously, RHB customers were left out of the Google Pay party, with the platform only supporting a limited number of Malaysian banks. However, with this recent integration, RHB joins the ranks of other major financial institutions like Maybank, Public Bank, and CIMB, offering its customers a seamless mobile payment experience.
Unlocking Convenience with Google Pay
Adding your RHB Visa card to Google Pay is a straightforward process. Simply open the Google Wallet app on your Android phone and navigate to the “Add Card” section. You can either scan your card using your phone’s camera or manually enter the details. Once your card is verified, you’re ready to start making contactless payments at any terminal displaying the Google Pay or contactless payment symbol.

Security remains a top concern for mobile payments. Google Pay utilizes multiple layers of security to ensure your financial information is protected. When you make a payment, a unique encrypted token is generated instead of your actual card number, minimizing the risk of fraud in case of data breaches. Additionally, Google Pay leverages your phone’s security features, such as fingerprint verification or PIN, for added peace of mind.
Benefits Beyond Convenience
The integration with Google Pay offers several advantages for RHB customers:
- Faster Transactions: Forget fiddling with cash or swiping your card. Google Pay allows for swift and hassle-free payments, keeping you moving through your day.
- Enhanced Security: As mentioned earlier, Google Pay employs robust security measures to protect your financial information.
- Improved Tracking and Management: View your transaction history and manage your spending directly within the Google Wallet app.
- Rewards Integration: While not explicitly mentioned, some banks allow users to earn rewards points when making purchases through Google Pay. It’s worth checking with RHB to see if such benefits apply.
What About Other Card Types?
While the current integration focuses on RHB Visa cards, there’s no information on whether other card networks like Mastercard will be supported in the future. It’s advisable to keep an eye on RHB’s official announcements for any updates regarding additional card network compatibility.
