Each request is under the RM 5,000 limit, but together they would need the next approval tier. The approver sees all three before signing off.

Purchase-fragmentation detection is part of AI Insights for Approvers: it flags orders broken into smaller requests to stay under a per-purchase approval limit.

Connections are set up with each customer’s IT team, using PunchOut (cXML or OCI) or an agreed integration flow; scope is confirmed during onboarding. Logos identify the systems and do not imply a certified partnership. Trademarks belong to their owners.

No software subscription, licence or per-seat fee.

Lapasar earns when buyers transact on the marketplace. That does not mean the lowest price on every item, so compare like-for-like totals, delivery included, before you buy.

Not software alone. There are people on the other end.

The software handles the workflow. When a part isn’t listed, a quote is stuck or an order needs untangling, Lapasar’s sourcing and support team picks it up. Three things the team prioritises:

These are priorities, not published service levels — ask us how they apply to your account.

  1. 01

    RFQ turnaround

    Send one request for quotation, including items that aren't listed. The sourcing team works the supplier network and brings quotes back for approval.

  2. 02

Delivery options reach buyers nationwide through merchant and partner arrangements, depending on location. Merchants who want fulfilment support can opt in to Lapasar’s own warehouses and delivery fleet, which serve Peninsular Malaysia. It’s an add-on, not a mandatory route for every order.

Quick answers

B2B e-procurement in Malaysia, answered

Lapasar is AI-first procurement software for long-tail spend, connected to a live B2B marketplace of 10,000+ suppliers and 2M+ SKUs and backed by a human sourcing and support team. Businesses buy on company credit terms with approval workflows and consolidated invoicing; merchants can opt in to Lapasar's own warehousing and delivery across Peninsular Malaysia.

What is a B2B e-procurement platform?
A B2B e-procurement platform digitises how businesses source and buy goods, combining a supplier catalogue, approval workflows, budgets, spend analytics and consolidated invoicing in one system. Lapasar's software is connected to a live marketplace and a sourcing team, so requisitions can become priced orders without a separate supplier search.
Is Lapasar software or a marketplace?
Both, in that order. Lapasar is AI-first procurement software for long-tail spend, connected to a live B2B marketplace where vendors, brand stores, manufacturers and OEMs list real products, and backed by a human sourcing and support team.
Who uses Lapasar?
Lapasar serves SMEs, large corporations and government-linked companies: corporate procurement teams, office and facilities managers, and retailers restocking their shelves. Buyers span manufacturing, oil & gas, FMCG, healthcare, education and the public sector.
How does Lapasar save businesses money?
Buyers compare 2M+ SKUs from 10,000+ suppliers, run RFQs and reverse bidding to put suppliers in competition, and consolidate fragmented vendors onto one account with one invoice. Approval workflows and spend analytics curb off-contract buying.
Does every Lapasar order ship from Lapasar's warehouses?
No. Merchants can deliver directly, and delivery options across Malaysia depend on location and merchant or partner arrangements. Merchants who need fulfilment support can opt in to Lapasar's own warehouses and delivery fleet, which serve Peninsular Malaysia.
How do Lapasar's credit terms work for buyers?
Every approved buyer purchases on company credit terms and settles on consolidated invoices. Lapasar extends RM300m+ in credit lines to customers every year, so procurement keeps moving without paying each supplier upfront.
Do suppliers get paid early on Lapasar?
Yes — Lapasar pays suppliers as early as 2 days after delivery, well ahead of the 60- or 90-day terms common in B2B trade. That adds up to RM100m+ in early supplier payments every year, on top of RM300m+ in buyer credit lines — RM400m+ backing the ecosystem in total.
What sits behind Lapasar's procurement software?
Lapasar is AI-first procurement software for long-tail spend. It is connected to a live B2B marketplace, backed by a human sourcing and support team, and supported by RM400m+ a year in credit lines and early supplier payments.
