MOLPay Cash; The Next Big Thing

MOLPay Sdn Bhd, Southeast Asia’s leading payment solutions provider raises the ante in e-commerce market segment by introducing MOLPay Cash, the first and only Online-to-Offline (O2O) innovative payment, pioneering in Southern Asia.

MOLPay Cash is a way of payment for customers that prefer to explore online shopping, but has no online banking accounts or cards. This is also perfect for online frequents that prefer offline cash payment. MOLPay Cash works as an alternative way of paying your shopping cart without keying in your banking details into a webpage.

As 60 per cent of Malaysian consumers prefer cash payment method instead of through credit cards[if !supportFootnotes][1][endif], this payment channel will be one of the main attractions for online e-commerce businesses. The introduction of MOLPay Cash is also timely since Malaysians are very concerned about their cyber-safety and more hesitant to reveal their payment card details online even if their personal info are protected[if !supportFootnotes][2][endif].

One of the main reasons why MOLPay Cash users are doubling each month is because there is no fuss in using this payment channel. The users can skip the tedious steps for creating an online account as well as keying in personal data and banking details on an online portal. It is as easy as buying online, checking out, paying for purchased items at the nearest 7-Eleven store and waiting for the parcel’s arrival.

The collaboration between these two companies will give a 40% boost in sales for the local e-commerce businesses from huge corporation to SMEs through MOLPay Cash alone, as it serves the remaining 60 percent of the unbanked market. It is also seen as a way for online merchants to expand their reach to more Malaysian consumers, thereby allowing more revenue and greater value for their new and existing customers.

“MOLPay Cash is the Online-to-Offline (O2O) gateway for these e-commerce as well as m-commerce businesses, from established companies to small SMEs, to engage and seize the 60% of the market that prefer cash payment over online banking or cards. In order to get to them, these online businesses are in need for a new, better and a more innovative means of payment,” said Mr. Eng Sheng Guan, Chief Executive Officer of MOLPay Sdn Bhd.

“MOLPay Cash is set to provide greater value to our Malaysian e-commerce businesses as it will spur local SMEs which are still exploring other innovative payment channels to engage the rest of the underserved market. The convenience of MOLPay Cash will allow these businesses to reach out to customers and grow their customer base as they can pay by cash to the nearest 7-Eleven for their online purchases,” added Mr. Eng.

“So far, we are witnessing an astounding 80% hike in monthly transactions for MOLPay Cash across the nation and we are expecting growth of more than 150%.  This number can be achieved through proper integration, awareness and education of the existence of such channel where many online businesses have neglected”, Mr. Eng concluded.

How does it work?

Just like any other monetary transaction, a few simple steps are involved to complete a payment for an online purchase with a maximum of RM1,500 transaction per day for safety reasons.

The person making an online purchase from selected online portals can proceed to checkout and select MOLPay Cash as their payment method that will then send a request to MOLPay.

A transaction ID and verification code will then be generated and the said buyer is required to take their transaction ID and verification code to the nearest 7-Eleven outlet and make the payment.  Once the payment has been done, a receipt will be issued and the merchant will then be updated on your payment status.  The only thing left to do is to wait for your parcel to arrive at your doorstep.

MOLPay offers a 48-hours period of payment to buyers to clear their transaction at any 7-Eleven outlets nationwide before voiding the order made.

Monetary transaction has the upper hand in the sense of its operating time. Most, if not all credit or debit card transactions will be momentarily suspended from 12am until 4:30am to allow their banking system to update.

But that will not  be a problem with MOLPay Cash.  There 2,122 7-Eleven outlets nationwide, which means at least 150 outlets per state, operates 24-hours a day, everyday of the year.

Why Handbags Should Be A Feng Shui Staple

Handbags often hold a woman’s ‘life’. We store our identity, our communications and contacts, entertainment, cosmetics, medicines and keys among other necessities in our bags. We have our bags with us during our waking hours. It makes sense to choose the right bag to suit our needs, and even to boost our luck!

To get onto the fast track to Feng Shui fashion the first step is to identify your Chinese Zodiac – of which there are a possible 60 from a combination of 12 animal signs (Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Boar) and 5 elements (Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water). 

Shape

Each element has a shape that complements it. Wood also known as ‘Tree’ is represented by tall rectangles, Fire by pointed, angular shapes for example triangles and diamonds, the Earth element is broad and chunky, Water is wavy, while the Metal element is round. 

Choose your bag shape based on your element for example Wood elements can opt for backpacks, Fire elements can go for studded , quilted bags, Earth elements would suit Boston bags, Water elements should opt for unstructured bags, and hatbox type bags will complement Metal elements.

 Colour

Next comes the colour, where it gets more complicated as colours that activate different types of luck change from year to year for different Chinese Zodiac signs. Check www.reebonz.com.my for a simple chart on the colours to use for your sign to increase your luck in Love, Wealth & Career, Health and ‘Nobleman’ an interesting concept that involves getting help from others.  It also lists the luck outlook for the 12 Zodiac signs.

Flash 2 Tops Lazada’s December 12 Sales Chart as the Most Popular Smartphone in Southeast Asia

A three-day shopping festival launched by Lazada, the largest e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia, was concurrently being staged in the 5 countries, including the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam from December 10 to 12. 

What is worth noting is that the Flash 2, which had been selling well in Southeast Asia, set several new sales records during the December 12 shopping season, winning the top spot of the December 12 sales chart and becoming the most purchased and popular smartphone with local consumers.

Lazada data show that the Flash 2 topped the sales charts in all 5 countries and was the undisputed mobile phone sales champion in the 100$-150$ price range. Not only so, the Flash 2 also won the 2^nd among all product categories. In addition, single sales of the Flash 2 increased by over 600% in both Malaysia and Vietnam. In the Philippines, Flash 2 sales rose at a startling rate of 1073%.

Southeast Asia is currently becoming a new growth pole in the global smartphone market. But, with what has the Flash 2 won the title of Lazada’s most purchased mobile phone for the December 12 shopping period and become the most popular mobile phone in Southeast Asia? Albert Wong, General Manager, Mobile Internet Group, TCL Communication, once said: “Mobile phone photography has become a way of living. We well understood this when we first created the Flash series. The completely new Flash 2 carries the photographic DNA of the Flash series and creates a classic camera mobile phone for mobile phone users who pursue ultimate images.”

The popularity of the Flash 2 in Southeast Asia not only stems from its powerful configurations and performance but also benefits from its perfect mobile phone-based photographic capability. Equipped with a 5-inch IPS HD screen, the Flash 2 features the best dimensions for single hand operations. With a MTK MT6753 8-kernel, 64-bit processor inside, the Flash 2 can achieve fast, seamless switchovers between multiple tasks. Adopting a 3000mAh lithium battery of ultra long life, the Flash 2 can support 5 consecutive hours of video playing or 30 hours of music playing nonstop.

The rear camera of the Flash 2 adopts Samsung ISOCELL sensors which are the mainstream in the industry, with an ultra large aperture of ƒ/2.0. Together with a dual color temperature RealTone LED flashlight, it can provide better imaging quality and color fidelity and ensure outstanding photo taking under dim light. In addition, the Flash 2 is equipped with a 5 megpixel Profie Cam as its front camera, which has OV5648 1/4" sensor and an ƒ/2.2 aperture. It can achieve automatic focusing on the human face and capture clear face profiles. This makes the Flash 2 an essential major weapon for selfie fans.
