Security update for Touch ’n Go users

Touch ’n Go users are required to update their cards for better
security features and to register their details beginning Thursday.

In a statement today, Rangkaian Segar Sdn Bhd said it would launch
"The Winning Touch" campaign, which involved the mandatory Touch
’n Go security update, a user registration exercise and a contest.

The campaign will run until Dec 8.

Rangkaian Segar chief operating officer Swinder Grewal said the
update involved changing the security key of the smartcard chip
embedded in Touch ’n Go cards.

Users are required to bring their cards to any Touch ’n Go counter.

For card security updates, purchases and user registration,
customers can visit Touch ’n Go counters located at all highway
toll plazas and selected Petronas stations.

Swinder said updates could also be done at "Tambah Nilai" lanes.

The company would also open mobile counters at major shopping
complexes and highway rest areas.

Registration forms can be obtained at these counters or through
