Setel and TNG Digital launch seamless fuel payment feature

Setel Ventures Sdn Bhd (Setel) and TNG Digital Sdn Bhd (TNGD) have announced a strategic partnership that allows users of the TNG eWallet to refuel and make payments at the pump via a new mini programme — “PETRONAS via Setel” — without ever leaving their vehicle. The collaboration marks a major step forward in digitising the refuelling experience at over 1,000 PETRONAS stations across Malaysia.

This development enables users to pump and pay for fuel directly through the TNG eWallet, eliminating the need to download a separate app or queue inside the petrol mart. The integration leverages Setel’s proprietary pump-and-pay technology and expands its accessibility to one of Malaysia’s most widely used digital wallets.

Digital convenience

The new feature, launched through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), taps into the strengths of both companies — Setel’s innovation in mobility tech and TNG Digital’s extensive eWallet user base. The result is a more intuitive fuelling experience that combines cashless payment, loyalty rewards, and real-time convenience.

“This partnership reflects our ongoing commitment to scale Setel’s platform through ecosystem integration that delivers meaningful impact,” said Abdullah Ayman Awaluddin, Chief Executive Officer of Setel. “Refuelling is a high-frequency transaction. Embedding Setel within TNG eWallet allows us to meet users where they are and reinforce our vision to deliver seamless and frictionless mobility and retail experiences through digital innovation.”

With the “PETRONAS via Setel” mini programme now live in the TNG eWallet, motorists can enjoy a smooth, app-free transaction flow while staying in their vehicle — a particularly appealing solution for those seeking convenience and safety in high-traffic environments.

Rewards-driven launch campaign

To celebrate the launch, Setel and TNG Digital are offering a limited-time promotion designed to attract and reward new users. The first 50,000 eligible transactions made through the TNG eWallet mini programme will earn RM5 worth of Mesra Rewards points.

This offer applies to first-time Setel and Mesra users, as well as existing Mesra members who link their ID to Setel for the first time. On top of that, users will also collect GOrewards points — TNG eWallet’s own loyalty currency — with every transaction, giving them dual reward benefits from a single pump-and-pay experience.

Building a smarter mobility ecosystem

The Setel-TNGD collaboration signifies more than just a tech integration — it points to a shared ambition of redefining how Malaysians move, pay, and get rewarded. By merging mobility, financial technology, and loyalty, the partnership is creating a blueprint for smarter everyday experiences.

Alan Ni, Chief Executive Officer of TNG Digital, said, “This partnership with Setel supports our goal of integrating practical, everyday services into the lives of our users. Fuel payments are a regular routine for many individuals, and this collaboration makes the process faster and more accessible, while creating new touchpoints within PETRONAS’ nationwide network. We actively encourage partnerships that not only enhance convenience for users, but also give our partners the opportunity to reach a wider, digitally engaged audience.”

As Malaysia continues its digital transformation journey, strategic collaborations like this underscore the value of platform interoperability — simplifying daily routines and delivering added value to users. For motorists, this means fewer steps, more rewards, and greater control — all from the palm of their hand.
