‘Digitalising. Everyone.’ moves towards a cashless Brunei

By integrating diverse services into one platform, we are not just adapting to the digital age, we are leading the charge towards a cashless, connected and inclusive Brunei, said Datastream Digital Sdn Bhd (DST) Chief Executive Officer Radin Sufri bin Radin Basiuni.

He said this during the launch of DST’s new brand story ‘Digitalising. Everyone.’ and the MyDST Super app at the Indera Samudra Grand Hall of The Empire Brunei yesterday.

By reimagining the utilisation of technology, processes, and people, DST paves the way for a truly cashless society in Brunei, empowering micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and creating a robust digital ecosystem with its e-wallet.

The platform facilitates seamless financial transactions, fosters economic inclusion, and provides essential e-government services, enhancing efficiency and convenience.

Meanwhile, DST’s new app features an ‘e-wallet’ to facilitate seamless peer-to-peer transfers via QR code or contacts, ‘Cashback Rewards’ available on selected transactions, and the efficient management of insurance and takaful through Insurans Islam TAIB, where users can also enjoy personalised telecommunications services encompassing data plans and bill payments. The app enhances user experience with a vast marketplace ‘Shop’, offering a curated selection of exclusive food and retail items, while simplifying the process of paying school fees with Biller services.

The launch ceremony was officiated by the guest of honour, Minister of Transport and Infocommunications Pengiran Dato Seri Setia Shamhary bin Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Mustapha.
