No cash, no fuss: explore Cambodia made easy with seamless QR payments.
One of every traveller’s greatest concerns is juggling a bulky wallet of foreign notes, a smartphone, a camera and other handheld items.
However, that concern is now a thing of the past, with the newly launched Cross-Border DuitNow QR, Malaysians have a new, streamlined payment process at their fingertips.
This new feature allows users to scan local KHQR codes and pay just like a local.
Whether you are savouring street-food noodles in Phnom Penh or shopping at a boutique in Siem Reap, travellers simply open the MAE app and scan to pay — exactly like you would in Malaysia.
Seamless payments
Travellers can now complete payments in seconds by launching the MAE app, tapping Scan and Pay and scanning the KHQR code at any participating merchant.
The app instantly converts ringgit into Cambodian Riel at the prevailing bank rate, displaying the exact ringgit equivalent before authorisation.
There are no hidden or extra fees — what appears on screen is precisely what leaves the account — and payments draw exclusively from current or savings accounts, simplifying expense tracking.
From scan to confirmation — enjoy quick, cashless payments with ease while travelling in Cambodia.
How to use Scan and Pay in Cambodia
- Launch the MAE app, tap the Scan and Pay icon on the home screen and scan the merchant’s KHQR code displayed at the point of sale.
- Enter the payable amount in Cambodian Riel — the app will display the equivalent in Malaysian ringgit and review the amount.
- And your payment is done!
Expand your cashless journeys
Cross-Border DuitNow QR feature is not limited to Cambodia – you can also use it in Singapore (NETS), Thailand (PromptPay), and Indonesia (QRIS).
At each destination, users simply look for the local QR code logo at participating merchants and the MAE app handles real-time currency conversions in real time.
