Malaysia is set to launch the MyDigital ID Superapp, a blockchain-based national digital identity ecosystem. The platform will include a digital wallet and enable commercial service providers to integrate digital identity management. This will streamline onboarding and eliminate the need for multiple authentication systems. The solution aims to lower risks such as online fraud.
The MyDigital ID Superapp prioritizes user privacy, with no personal data stored or accessed during transactions. The platform will function as an enabling tool, allowing users to access digital services securely. Plans are also underway to boost cross-border interoperability, building on existing successes in digital identity verification. The super-app is expected to simplify access to digital services while maintaining high standards of data security.
