The service is available to Hong Leong Bank ATM cardholders with Artajasa (Indonesia), NETS(Singapore) and ITMX (Thailand). The collaboration is very much in line with Hong Leong Bank's vision of having an integrated e-Payment network servingHLBB customers as well as travelers to Malaysia from these countries, which is expected to be a catalyst for tourism and trade among ASEAN nations.

 

For Hong Leong Bank cardholders, this service makes cash withdrawals more convenient and cost-effective in participating foreign countries.

Instead, they have ready access to a network of 7,743 ATMs inMalaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand providing cash, in a secured and safe manner, when required. The cross-border ATM transactions are expected togrow as more banks participate in this service.
