Enhanced AEON Wallet App: Streamlined and Feature-Rich
The AEON Wallet app has been upgraded with new features being rolled out in phases to provide a more intuitive and user-friendly experience. The new version of the app features a refreshed interface that simplifies payment processes, rewards management, and access to financial products.
The digital onboarding process integrated into the AEON Wallet App now reduces turnaround time to just 52 minutes from 3 days previously. This improvement includes features such as pre-assessment, e-mandate, e-signature, e-storage, and scoring models.
Users can now manage their finances without the need for physical cards, thanks to the app’s enhanced functionality. The upgraded app includes a Basic Wallet, which allows users to maintain a maximum wallet size of RM200 while enjoying essential features like scanning, paying, and earning AEON points. For an elevated experience, users can opt for the Premium Wallet through a straightforward e-KYC verification process. This upgrade unlocks benefits such as earning points on every transaction, a wallet size of up to RM10,000, and seamless fund transfers.
Rebranding the AEON credit card as a “Must-have Card”
AEON Credit streamlined its credit card offerings and updated features to provide cardholders with more privileges. This enhancement aims to position its credit card as the premier choice within AEON, attracting AEON shoppers to use it more frequently. The enhancement efforts have been actively promoted through customer acquisition initiatives in collaboration with the AEON Group of Companies, as well as through various marketing campaigns showcasing the enhanced benefits of its cards.
The all-new AEON Virtual Credit Card was designed specifically for online transactions. This card is available to all new and existing credit card holders, excluding AEON Credit Executive Business Cardholders.
The Virtual Card provides customers with a unique card number separate from their physical card, enhancing security for online purchases. Available immediately upon card renewal, replacement, or new issuance through the AEON Wallet app, the Virtual Card offers a range of benefits including no annual fees and no card replacement fees. This makes it a cost-effective and secure option for managing online payments.
