Traveling abroad is always an exciting adventure, but figuring out local transportation can quickly become a major headache. You land in a new country, realise you need a specific local app, struggle with unfamiliar foreign verification steps, and worry about setting up new payment methods. TNG Digital is changing that story for millions of Malaysian travellers. The company just announced a brand-new overseas ride-hailing feature built right inside the TNG eWallet app, making it the very first Malaysian eWallet to let users book and pay for rides abroad directly within their familiar home application.
Built in strategic collaboration with Alipay+, this new travel feature opens up access to leading ride-hailing providers across 47 countries and more than 12,000 cities. Whether you are heading to popular regional destinations like Japan, South Korea, and China, or exploring cities across the European Union, North America, and Canada, you are fully covered. Instead of downloading unfamiliar foreign software or scrambling to set up foreign currency accounts on arrival, everything runs smoothly through your existing digital wallet.
In China, users gain direct access to DiDi Travel and AMap. If you are visiting South Korea, Kakao T handles your daily journeys. Japan travel relies on GO, while European adventures are powered by Bolt. Over in the United States and Canada, Lyft steps in to keep you moving effortlessly. Travellers are able to select the service that best fits their plans thanks to support for multiple vendors and services.
Financial convenience is a huge selling point for this update. Every single ride is paid for directly in Malaysian Ringgit using your existing TNG eWallet balance. You never have to worry about handling physical foreign currency right after landing or stressing over complicated credit card conversion rates. Fares are clearly displayed upfront before you confirm any booking, giving you total transparency from the start. All trip details and past transaction records stay neatly organised inside the app for easy tracking.
Alan Ni, Chief Executive Officer of TNG Digital, pointed out that overseas ride-hailing solves one of the most immediate practical needs travellers face immediately after landing. He noted that this exciting update turns the app into an even more connected travel companion for everyday users. Recent data shows that around 35% of TNG eWallet users have already engaged with at least one travel-related service in the app, proving that users love managing their journeys digitally.
Scarlett Xing, General Manager of Alipay+ Travel Solutions at Ant International, added that this integration turns everyday mobile wallets into intelligent global gateways where technology bridges borders seamlessly.
This latest rollout expands an already robust ecosystem of digital travel offerings. Before boarding a flight, users can purchase travel deals and eSIM plans, make cross-border retail payments at their destination, and now lock down reliable transportation. By blending local familiarity with international capability, TNG eWallet continues to reshape how Malaysians experience the world, one smooth journey at a time.
