TNG Digital Sdn. Bhd. (“TNG Digital”), Malaysia’s leading integrated fintech provider, is implementing TapSecure—a one-tap approval function that will replace SMS One-Time Passwords (OTPs), to securely approve Touch ‘n Go eWallet Visa Card online transactions, effective 17 March 2025. This upgrade enhances security while delivering a faster, safer and more seamless payment experience.
With TapSecure, users can authenticate transactions seamlessly with a single tap within the TNG eWallet app, eliminating the need for traditional OTP. This integrated approval process reduces the risk of phishing attacks and eliminates the threat of SMS intercepting malware, while streamlining the payment experience. As a result, users enjoy faster, more secure approvals and a smoother overall transaction experience for all Touch ‘n Go eWallet Visa Card transactions.
TapSecure adds an extra layer of protection by linking transaction approvals to a single registered device, ensuring only the authorised user can approve payments. Each TNG eWallet account can only be linked to one device at a time, preventing unauthorised access and strengthening account security.
To ensure uninterrupted approvals, TNG eWallet users are encouraged to enable notifications in their app settings. Here is how users can approve transactions using TapSecure:
