Payment gateway provider iPay88 revealed in a statement that it suffered a “cybersecurity incident” that may have compromised customers’ card data.
The company provides payment processing services to a host of businesses, including ecommerce platform Shopee and Apple authorised reseller Machines.
Payment cards from most major banks and ewallet services in the country are accepted by the gateway, making the incident especially concerning.
While it is unclear when the incident occurred, iPay88 said that the leak was detected on May 31.
“To ensure the continued safety of the card data, we have implemented various new measures and controls to strengthen the system’s security against any further incidents,” iPay88 posted on its website.
It also said that an investigation into the incident is still going on and that more information will be shared later.
