Full Payment Service with 6.7 Million Users Frequently Reports Unauthorized Charges; Financial Supervisory Commission Demands Report by the 17th

PX Pay, PX Mart’s payment service with 6.74 million users, has faced repeated reports of unauthorized charges linked to phishing scams. Fraudsters have reportedly created fake websites to steal user data, leading to multiple unauthorized deductions. PX Pay denies any system breaches or data leaks on their part and attributes the incidents to external fraud groups impersonating brands to trick users into revealing sensitive information.

The Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) has demanded a written report from PX Pay by November 17 following the major incident reported on November 6. FSC Deputy Director-General Wang Yunchung stressed that electronic payment institutions are generally responsible for data misuse unless they can prove no negligence or consumer fault. He also warned the public to be vigilant against phishing attempts and to verify suspicious communications with institutions.

PX Pay is a major player in the electronic payments sector, handling NT$6.345 billion in agent receipts and payments in September and ranking third in user numbers with 6.747 million users. The FSC reiterated the importance of complying with standardized contract regulations regarding security responsibilities between consumers and payment institutions.

Separately, Taiwan’s NT$10,000 cash distribution program has progressed with over 4.97 million registrations completed as of November 10. Funds are expected to be deposited starting November 11 or 12, though delays could occur due to Typhoon Fenghuang’s impact on banking operations. Registration is now fully open without restrictions based on ID numbers, and multiple withdrawal methods including ATM and in-person post office pickups will commence in the following weeks.

Credit card transactions hit a record NT$403.2 billion in September, bolstered by promotional events and the release of Apple’s iPhone 17, resulting in a cumulative year-to-date increase of nearly 6%. CTBC Bank led in new card issuances and transaction volume during this period.
