The charger costs RM1.40/kWh (RM0.70/kWh during a 50% launch promo from 14 Aug to 14 Sep 2026), with each of its two nozzles capped at 100kW. It supports activation via JomCharge, Gentari Go, ChargEV apps, and tap-to-pay with credit/debit cards. Why: For builders in the Malaysian EV or payments space, the tap-to-pay card terminal and multi-app activation (JomCharge, Gentari Go, ChargEV) signal that interoperability and open payment rails are becoming standard expectations for local charging infrastructure. If you're building mobility, fleet, or payment apps, plan for card-based and cross-network access rather than assuming a single proprietary app gateway. ev-infrastructure payments malaysia-tech
