BebelHR: Can You Get Paid Without a Bank Account?

What happens when someone has difficulty opening a bank account? How do employers pay workers who are still receiving their salaries in cash? And in 2026, does salary even need to go into a traditional bank account anymore?

In this episode of BebelHR, I sat down with Akmal Muzanni, Business Development Manager, Payments & Remittance of TNG Digital, a subject matter expert in financial inclusion, to understand the unbanked, underbanked and underserved in Malaysia.

We talked about everything from cash payroll and using TNG eWallet as an alternative way to receive salary. And apparently, eWallets also started offering investments and something called e-Mas. Aunty getting really old.

For HR and SME owners, we also discussed how HRMS providers are beginning to integrate TNG eWallet as another salary disbursement option.

Quite an interesting look at how the way we receive, keep and manage our money is changing.
