U Mobile Digital School is a key Digital Business pillar, where we focus on delivering solutions and services that serve the Education sector, i.e. the School and Learning communities.
Projek Rintis is U Mobile’s pilot initiative under the U Mobile Digital School pillar, aimed at accelerating the country’s digital transformation.
It is a school community platform that drives financial literacy amongst Government school students; with a Cashless Payment solution catered towards students, parents, teachers and school operators.
Launched in 2024, Projek Rintis is a year-long program in collaboration with five selected Malaysian Government schools. It is designed to break the barriers of digitalisation, where we as U Mobile, fully sponsor and implement a comprehensive Cashless Payment ecosystem. We achieve this with our Technology partner, Debit Circles Sdn. Bhd. (Vircle), who has developed the Cashless Payment fintech application and platform.
We aim to reach and benefit the lives of students, parents, teachers, and school merchants (canteen operators, bookstore operators, koperasi operators, and more).
Community-wide, the Cashless Payment solution delivers innovation as it uplifts and catalyzes the digital transformation of processes.
For Students, the Cashless Payment solution presents itself as a convenient payment method with an NFC card. The solution helps to increase financial literacy from a tender young age, as it enables them to handle finances and gain a better understanding of money matters early on.
For Parents, they enjoy the convenience of managing their children’s school allowance through a secure app, which is synced to the NFC card. They get peace-of-mind as they can monitor their children’s expenditures, and even manage their food intake by pre-ordering healthy, nutritious meals in school. An additional perk is that the solution encourages bonding between child and parent, as it is an interactive financial platform.
For Teachers, the platform offers superior control over daily operations as it reduces the workload caused by managing cash in school.
For Schools, this solution brings innovation by digitalising their key operations (canteen operations, bookstore operations, koperasi operations, as well as PIBG fees).
Yes, the Cashless Payment solution is safe. Debit Circles Sdn Bhd (Vircle) is fully regulated under the Bank Negara Malaysia's Financial Services Act as an e-money service operating under the Principal Licence of Fass Payment Solutions Sdn Bhd.
Child-friendly safety measures and controls are in place within the app. For example, it allows parents to immediately freeze their child’s NFC card at just the touch of a button. They are also able to order a replacement card if the card is misplaced or lost.
Yes, we are open for all schools to approach us for the cashless payment ecosystem and financial literacy platform, and any other digitalisation and innovation needs.
