Stripe Officially Launches in Malaysia — Empowering SMEs to Go Global with EasyStore 

Stripe, a leading global payment gateway providing technology-driven solutions to businesses worldwide, has officially launched its services in Malaysia.

EasyStore is proud to be one of Stripe’s earliest local partners, having collaborated closely during Stripe’s testing phase in Malaysia earlier this year.

Why Malaysia, and Why Now?

With over 80% of Malaysians connected to the internet and the digital economy contributing around 3% to Malaysia’s GDP, the country presents huge potential for eCommerce growth. Recognizing this opportunity, Malaysia becomes Stripe’s second market in Southeast Asia, following Singapore.

As part of its entry strategy, Stripe is teaming up with key industry leaders across sectors. To lead the way in eCommerce, EasyStore is the first Malaysian eCommerce platform provider to officially partner with Stripe, supporting SMEs in scaling their businesses locally and globally.

Stripe x EasyStore: A Shared Vision for SMEs

Both Stripe and EasyStore share a mission — to eliminate barriers for entrepreneurs and build accessible infrastructure that empowers businesses of all sizes. Through this partnership:

• EasyStore merchants get seamless onboarding with Stripe.

• Merchants gain access to Stripe’s full feature stack, including:

  • Billing — manage subscriptions and recurring payments

  • Sigma — advanced analytics and reporting

  • Radar — intelligent fraud prevention

  • Connect — marketplace and multi-party payments

Expanding Local Payment Options with FPX

Additionally, Stripe is integrating with Payment Network Malaysia (PayNet), and will soon roll out FPX beta support for EasyStore merchants.

FPX enables payments through 17 major local banks, ensuring merchants can provide customers with a familiar and seamless local checkout experience — while still accepting global payment methods like credit cards.
