What is DuitNow?
DuitNow is Malaysia's instant account to account transfer service, run by Payments Network Malaysia (PayNet) on the Real time Retail Payments platform. PayNet is the national payments infrastructure company whose largest shareholder is Bank Negara Malaysia, alongside eleven Malaysian financial institutions. You send from the internet or mobile banking app of any of 42 participating banks, or from a participating eWallet, using either an account number or a DuitNow ID such as a mobile number, NRIC, passport number or business registration number.
- Speed
- Instant and available around the clock: the funds land in the recipient account within seconds of you confirming the transfer.
- Cost
- PayNet lists transfers up to RM5,000 as free, with a 50 sen (RM0.50) fee above that amount which many banks waive.
- Limits
- RM5,000 is the free tier boundary rather than a hard cap, and each participating bank sets its own per transfer and daily transfer limits on top.
Speed and cost describe the rail itself. What an exchange adds on top varies by platform and is shown per exchange below.
