Malaysia Airlines has entered into a
regional partnership with hoolah, an omnichannel Buy Now Pay Later
(BNPL) platform.
Through this collaboration, travellers in
Malaysia, Singapore and soon Hong Kong, will be able to book their getaway
with Malaysia Airlines online and pay for
their flights via hoolah’s flexible three-month, interest-free
payment option.
This means that travellers can fly to their
destination and enjoy their vacation before paying for the ticket
in full, spreading the cost over three monthly interest-free
installments.

Arvin Singh, CEO and Co-Founder of hoolah said,
“We are thrilled to be partnering with Malaysia Aviation Group in
Asia and support their business objectives as we push forward
together to accelerate the recovery and growth of the travel and
tourism industry. As countries in the region gradually open up
their borders, we look forward to making travel more accessible
and affordable for travellers, along with the flexibility to pay
for their holiday over time.”
Malaysia’s borders are expected to reopen on 1
April 2022 following a two-year closure brought on by the
COVID19 pandemic.
Hoolah’s BNPL
is also available in Malaysia on Journify, an integrated one-stop
travel and lifestyle digital platform through which travellers can
discover new places such as attractions, food and more;
plan their trips around Malaysia; and shop local products.
Lau Yin May, Group Chief Marketing and Customer
Experience Officer of Malaysia Airlines, said, “We are excited to
collaborate with hoolah as it provides another payment option and
flexibility for customers to book their flights with Malaysia
Airlines and shop on Journify. This marks our first-of-its-kind
partnership with a BNPL provider in Asia, and it couldn’t be
timelier as we anticipate growing demands for travel with the
reopening of our borders soon.”
