Touch 'n Go eWallet users will be able to access a large number of investment products listed on Bursa Malaysia
Using the app's GOinvest feature, verified users can monitor their Central Depository System (CDS) account and portfolio on the app, as well as view real-time market information and execute trades. Users will also be able to invest in Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs).
Aside from that, Affin Hwang Investment Bank plays the role of the broker partner to guide investors by providing greater market access, research resources, real-time market data, and customer support.
Do note that if you don't have a CDS account yet, you'll have to open one through Affin Hwang Investment Bank's platform before you can view it on your Touch 'n Go eWallet.
Furthermore, Touch 'n Go eWallet's GOinvest feature serves as an educational tool
To encourage new investors, the feature will provide intuitive trading interfaces and easy-to-understand educational resources, so you can trade with confidence.
