Touch ‘n Go has launched the DuitNow Transfer function on the eWallet app. This allows users to move their money from any banking account supporting the DuitNow, directly to the eWallet in real-time.
How to transfer funds from DuitNow to Touch ‘n Go eWallet?
Users can just enter the recipient’s mobile phone number or Touch ‘n Go eWallet account number to make an instant fund transfer from over 30 Malaysian banks. You may check the participating banks here.
