Built to Malaysian rules

What changes for a Malaysian business

  • PDPA 2010

    A privacy notice in English and Malay, consent for collection and marketing, and minimal forms. Health data is sensitive personal data under the Act.

  • Medicine Advertisements Board approval

    Advertising for health services and treatments in Malaysia generally needs MAB approval with a KKLIU number, and the MMC and MDC codes restrict claims and testimonials. Clinic and dental sites are built to be approvable and we flag what needs the number.

  • .com.my domains

    A .com.my needs a Malaysian company registration; .my is open. Registered in your name.

  • Consumer Protection Act

    Prices clear and inclusive of SST where applicable; terms stated plainly.

Questions

What Malaysian businesses ask first

Do clinic websites need advertising approval in Malaysia?

Health service advertising generally needs Medicine Advertisements Board approval and a KKLIU number, and the medical and dental councils restrict claims and testimonials. We build clinic and dental sites so the content is approvable and tell you which elements need the number.

Which payment methods work?

FPX online banking, DuitNow QR, Touch 'n Go and GrabPay through iPay88, Billplz or Stripe, alongside cards. Deposits use the same gateway.

Can you register a .com.my?

A .com.my needs your SSM registration; .my is open. Either is registered in your name and we walk you through it.

Do you work in the local language?

We work in English: calls, email and project management. The site we build for you can be in the local language, and for a business serving local customers it should be; you write or approve that copy. We do not machine-translate a page about your business.
