As Malaysia continues to embrace digital transformation, Outdoor Payment Terminals (OPT) are emerging as a key player in the evolution of payment infrastructure. With the rise of EMV standards and a growing preference for contactless transactions, OPTs are becoming the go-to solution for petrol stations, EV charging stations, and convenience stores.

Why OPTs Are Gaining Momentum

The shift from traditional point-of-sale (POS) systems to outdoor payment terminals is driven by several factors:

Ease of Use: OPTs offer a seamless, user-friendly experience.

Contactless Transactions: Ideal for today’s hygiene-conscious consumers.

AI & ML Integration: Enhancing speed, security, and personalization.

Work-from-Home & E-Commerce Influence: Accelerating demand for unattended payment solutions.

The Malaysian OPT market is projected to grow steadily between 2021 and 2025, with increasing installations year-over-year. This growth is fueled by consumer behavior, infrastructure expansion, and the rise of EVs.

Market Insights & Future Outlook

As EV adoption rises, the number of charging stations is expected to surge, influencing the demand for OPTs. Similarly, while traditional fuel stations may see a shift, the need for efficient, unattended payment systems remains strong.
