IDEMIA Secure Transactions Enables Google Pay for AEON Bank in Malaysia

IDEMIA Secure Transactions (IST) has achieved its first digital card deployment in Malaysia by enabling Google Pay for AEON Bank. This milestone strengthens IST’s role in powering secure, next-generation payment infrastructure across Asia-Pacific.

Through IST’s secure digital payment enablement, AEON Bank cardholders can now add their cards to Google Wallet and make fast, contactless payments using NFC-enabled Android smartphones at point-of-sale terminals across Malaysia.

This latest collaboration builds on IST’s existing support for AEON Bank, beginning in 2024 through the provision of physical payment cards and personalization services. Google Pay enablement now expands the partnership from card services into secure digital payment infrastructure. The bank currently offers a suite of products and services for personal banking customers, as well as business banking clients through AEON Bank Biz.

The adoption of Google Pay reflects AEON Bank’s commitment to making digital banking more accessible, convenient, and secure for customers. As smartphones continue to become the primary financial touchpoint for consumers—from opening an account to managing daily transactions —bringing Google Pay into the experience helps make everyday payments even easier.

At AEON Bank, we are focused on delivering digital banking experiences that are simple, secure and relevant to the way our customers live and transact every day, while remaining grounded in Islamic finance principles. With Google Pay now available, our cardholders have another convenient way to make mobile-first payments, further strengthening the digital journey we continue to build for our customers. Through our collaboration with IDEMIA Secure Transactions, we continue to enhance our digital banking ecosystem and expand secure payment solutions for our customers.
