What is OCBC OneCollect?
OCBC OneCollect is a cashless collection solution and merchant platform featuring both our web portal and mobile application. It enables retail collection simply with a QR code using a smartphone camera. We currently offer both DuitNow QR and PayNow QR to enable your business to receive payment for those residing in Malaysia and Singapore, in SGD and MYR currencies.
-
How does OCBC OneCollect work?
By scanning the generated PayNow or DuitNow QR codes using a smartphone camera, merchants in Malaysia can receive payments in MYR from their customers paying in either MYR or SGD.
How it works is that the merchant puts in the collection price in MYR on the OCBC OneCollect app. Customers opting to pay in SGD can scan the generated PayNow QR code. Alternatively, customers can make payment in MYR by scanning the generated DuitNow QR code through their mobile banking application.

What is PayNow?
PayNow is a funds transfer service available to retail customers from nine participating banks in Singapore – Bank of China, Citibank Singapore Limited, DBS Bank/POSB, HSBC, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited, Maybank, OCBC Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, and UOB.
Retail customers of participating banks can now transfer funds by scanning the PayNow QR code using the existing mobile banking application of the participating banks.

What is DuitNow QR?
DuitNow QR is Malaysia's National Standard Quick Response (QR) established by PayNet under Bank Negara's Interoperable Credit Transfer Framework (ICTF). Merchant customers can make payment from any participating Banks and/or e-wallet mobile app. To do this, the merchants need only to display one QR code (the DuitNow QR code) to receive payment in MYR, as opposed to the current practice of displaying multiple proprietary QR codes at the payment counter.
