GEORGE TOWN: The Malaysian Associatio­n of Tour and Travel Agents (Matta) yesterday announced a new product from its partnershi­p with homegrown FinTech company ManagePay Systems Berhad (MPay) – an innovative travel card and loyalty programme.

The Jelajahi Negaraku Malaysia card offers loyal Matta fair customers perks such as attractive cashback deals and special member discounts from a wide range of travel and lifestyle merchants.

Matta’s honorary secretaryg­eneral Nigel Wong told a press conference that the card and loyalty programme will promote travel and provide customers with flexibilit­y in terms of worldwide acceptance.

Wong said the card would also prove popular among tourists with its unique Malaysian branding.

MPay will also launch a travel deal e-commerce site, travel. buymalaysi­a.com, which will go live this month.

At phase one, the site will promote the travel deals available in MPay Wallet and by January next year, the site will be launched as a full-fledged travel e-commerce platform with special discounts for cardholder­s.

MPay’s Group marketing manager Tan Chia Wei said the card will allow travellers to go cashless by using payment cards from their home country.

The card will be available for sale at its launch price at Matta Fair Penang at the Setia SPICE Arena from Sept 28 to Sept 30. – by Edmund Lee
