by Fintech News Malaysia April 5, 2023Alliance Bank Malaysia has introduced its new dynamic virtual credit card to make online transactions more secure in partnership with Visa, CTOS Digital, RinggitPlus’ owner Jirnexu, mobile network operator YTL Communications (YES) and TNG Digital.
A virtual card becomes available for customer use immediately after generating and assigning a random 16-digit card number which changes every 30 minutes.

Customers will also have the flexibility to determine a dedicated dynamic card number as well as the number of times it can be used for a particular subscription service.
This enables customers to track and manage their digital transactions on-the-go more conveniently and securely via their mobile phones.
The single-use dynamic card number is said to offer a more secure and safer way of making daily purchases and minimises the customers’ exposure to fraudulent risks, identity thefts and other financial scams.
Additionally, it also reduces production of plastic credit cards and helps to lower credit card footprint on online channels.
The application process is fully online with digital submission of supporting documents such as EPF statements or salary slips. Successful applicants will be notified through a push notification.
