Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad announced a strategic partnership with Qwork which allows the bank to tap into the pool of gig workers and provide flexible financial solutions tailored to the needs of freelancers.
By leveraging Qwork’s diverse talent network, the bank aims to address the growing workforce segment’s economic challenges and offer them access to Shariah-compliant banking products and services.
Aside from accessing banking services, customers can use the ‘Gig Marketplace’ feature in the Be U app to find income opportunities provided by Qwork. The effort aligns with Be U’s endeavors in responding to the needs of young adults who
seek to earn spare cash through short-term jobs.
Bank Islam Group Chief Digital Officer, Noor Farilla Abdullah expressed her enthusiasm about the partnership. She stated, “We are delighted to collaborate with Qwork in our ongoing efforts to bolster the overall Be U app. Incorporating this use case into the app will empower users to handle their finances and earn their living. With everything on a single platform, users can easily track and manage their finances and access tailored solutions that cater to freelancers. This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment.
