TNG Digital launches Business Account to help even the smallest businesses grow with ease
TNG Digital Sdn Bhd has launched the TNG Digital Business Account which is designed to support micro-SMEs and gig workers with a zero-barrier solution to digitalise their operations, manage income, and grow their businesses securely, all from a mobile device. The launch was officiated by Deputy Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Fuziah Salleh alongside TNG Digital CEO Alan Ni. This initiative marks a significant step forward in making digital financial tools more accessible to Malaysia's underserved and informal business communities. TNG Digital Business Account is a fully digital e-Wallet account issued by TNG Digital, an approved e-money issuer regulated by Bank Negara Malaysia. It requires no fees, no paperwork, and no minimum balance, designed for all types of small businesses including SMEs, microSMEs (MSMEs), hawkers, informal merchants, and gig workers, who are often excluded from traditional financial services. 'TNG Digital Business Account was built to address a clear gap. Although micro and small businesses contribute nearly 40% of GDP and support almost half of the nation's workforce, many still lack access to tools that help them scale and operate efficiently in a digital economy. 'This solution enables them to accept payment, manage transactions and grow their businesses efficiently through their mobile phones. 'For a long time, many micro and small businesses have had to make do without the right tools to manage their finances efficiently. 'With the TNG Digital Business Account, we're changing that by removing the barriers and allowing SMEs to open an account instantly, receive funds in real time, and make transfers seamlessly across banks and e-Wallets, all within a secure and inclusive ecosystem, at zero cost. It's about making everyday business simpler so they can focus on growing.' Meanwhile, Fuziah noted that the launch of the Business Account by TNG Digital is a new product that will add value to the MSME community in the country. 'What we are witnessing is an important step towards creating a more accessible system, especially for those who have previously been left out of the benefits of digital services,' she remarked. 'Initiatives like this are not just about technology, but also about ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate in and benefit from the growth of the new economy.' In addition to enabling payments, the Business Account gives merchants access to business growth tools. With over 23 million verified users on the TNG e-Wallet platform, merchants can boost visibility through features like Near Me, and drive customer engagement using GOyangGOyang cashback and voucher campaigns. The account also includes built-in safety features such as a dedicated PIN, kill switch, and 24/7 fraud protection. Looking ahead, TNG Digital plans to expand the offering into a broader ecosystem that includes micro-lending, savings, and protection services tailored for micro and small businesses. The TNG Digital Business Account reflects the company's broader mission to make business easy, so every dream, no matter how small, has the chance to grow.
