Digital Habits and Channels in Malaysia
Malaysia has high smartphone use, and WhatsApp is the main messaging channel for businesses, while Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Shopee are major discovery platforms. Under industry rules overseen by MCMC, promotional SMS in Malaysia begin with 'RM0.00' to show the message is free to receive, and senders must identify themselves and offer an opt-out.
DuitNow QR, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay and online banking (FPX) are common payment methods. Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, the 11.11 and 12.12 online sales and the year-end school holidays shape the commercial calendar.
Malaysia's economy includes electronics and semiconductor assembly in Penang, palm oil, oil and gas, and tourism. The sales and service tax (SST) applies instead of VAT.
