The Ministry of Finance (MOF) announced that on the third day of SARA implementation, the highest number of transactions was recorded so far with more than 1.1 million transactions successfully executed yesterday.
According to MOF, since August 31, 2025, the MyKasih system has faced a surge in traffic with more than 2,000 transactions approved per minute compared to 540 transactions per minute last April.
To ensure smooth operation, processing capacity has also been increased almost fourfold from 5,000 to 15,000 queries per minute.
As of 10.30pm yesterday, the recorded sales value amounted to RM75.3 million compared to RM50 million on 31 August 2025.
In addition, the transaction rate also increased to 95% compared to 79% on 31 August.
MOF also appreciated the response from SARA recipients and stressed that every feedback will be used as the main guide to improve the system to be more efficient and user-friendly.
