Fiuu Hits Massive Milestone in Local FinTech Scene
It is a massive year for the Malaysian-grown payment powerhouse formerly known as Razer Fintech. We’ve been tracking their progress closely, and the latest figures are staggering: Fiuu has officially processed a whopping USD 13 billion in Total Payment Volume (TPV) for the year 2025. This represents a significant 32.65% year-on-year growth, proving that the digital economy in our region is far from slowing down.
This surge isn’t just about numbers; it reflects a fundamental shift in how Malaysians and our Southeast Asian neighbors are handling money. From e-commerce checkouts to physical retail, the ecosystem is maturing rapidly, and Fiuu is positioning itself right at the center of this evolution.
Looking Ahead: The 2026 Roadmap
While the 2025 results are impressive, what really caught our eye is the strategy for 2026. We are seeing a major push toward three key pillars: Click-to-Pay, UnionPay integration, and a massive focus on cross-border payments.
1. Streamlining with Click-to-Pay
The goal here is friction-less commerce. By expanding Click-to-Pay, the aim is to eliminate the tedious task of entering card details for every transaction. For Malaysian shoppers, this means a more secure and faster checkout experience that rivals the convenience of local e-wallets but with the global reach of credit cards.
2. Strengthening Ties with UnionPay
With the return of regional travel and tourism, the integration with UnionPay is a strategic masterstroke. This will allow local merchants to effortlessly accept payments from international visitors, particularly from China, further boosting the local retail and hospitality sectors.
3. Borderless Transactions
Perhaps the most exciting development is the focus on cross-border payments. We’ve seen how QRIS and DuitNow linkages have made traveling to Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia easier. Fiuu is looking to scale this even further, making international business-to-business and consumer transactions as seamless as sending a WhatsApp message.
The TechSlack Analysis
In our view, Fiuu’s growth is a testament to the robustness of the Malaysian fintech landscape. By moving beyond just being a payment gateway and becoming a comprehensive commerce enabler, they are tackling the real pain points of local SMEs—scaling internationally without the headache of complex financial backends.
As we move further into 2026, keep an eye on how these cross-border initiatives roll out. If successful, the ‘Malaysian way’ of digital payments might just become the standard for the rest of the region.
