TNG eWallet users can now recycle used cooking oil (UCO) and receive payments directly to their eWallets through a new partnership with Arus Oil.

This collaboration aims to promote sustainability by turning waste into a resource, while reducing environmental pollution.

Arus Oil, which has collected 1,000 tonnes of UCO since 2017, is streamlining the recycling process via TNG eWallet.

Users can sell their UCO to Arus Oil via TNG eWallet by simply tapping on the Arus Oil icon in the app, creating an appointment, and providing necessary details along with a photo of the UCO.

Arus Oil will then arrange a convenient pickup, with a minimum collection requirement of 5 kg.

Once collected, payments are credited in real-time.

Currently available in the Klang Valley, the service will expand to include the northern region and East Malaysia.

During a campaign from 9 to 23 September 2024, users who recycle UCO at Arus Oil’s Subang Jaya facility through the app will receive a special rate of RM3 per kilogram.

Alan Ni, Chief Executive Officer of TNG Digital, said,

“With this initiative, we encourage Malaysians to recycle their used cooking oil, earn rewards, and make a positive impact on the environment through our platform.

This partnership with Arus Oil represents a significant step towards a greener and more sustainable future for all.”

Syazwan Majid, Chief Executive Officer, said,

“This partnership with the No. 1 eWallet in Malaysia aligns with our mission to lead Malaysia towards a greener future by turning waste into a resource.

By facilitating the recycling of UCO through the cashless platform, we are empowering Malaysians to contribute directly to the environmental preservation of renewable energy while earning rewards.”
