KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Nov. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Webull Securities (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. ("Webull Malaysia"), a subsidiary of Webull Corporation, owner of the popular Webull digital investment platform with over 40 million downloads globally, today announced the launch of an Islamic banking channel. This new feature offers local investors the flexibility to choose to fund their Webull trading accounts via an Islamic bank or a conventional bank, making Webull Malaysia the first fully online retail brokerage platform in the country to offer such a service.
The dual banking gateway provides both Muslim and non-Muslim investors with a seamless and flexible currency exchange and deposit system. For those seeking to fund their trading accounts with Shariah-compliant funding options, this new feature, together with zero deposit fees, interest-free and a profit-sharing based banking facility, will enhance their overall trading experience.
Meeting the needs of local investors
Webull Malaysia's new Islamic banking channel aims to cater to the diverse needs of local investors, especially investors who are looking to invest in Shariah compliant equities and exchange traded funds (ETFs) across both the Malaysian and U.S. stock markets. Furthermore, the existing Shariah indicator for U.S. stocks and ETFs will improve the overall investor experience by making it easier and more efficient to access and trade Shariah-compliant assets on the Webull platform.
Kenneth Chan, CEO, Webull Malaysia, said, "We are proud to be the first fully online retail brokerage platform in Malaysia to offer local investors the flexibility to fund their trading accounts with an Islamic bank. The introduction of the Islamic banking channel along with improvements to the Shariah stock screener, enables investors to fund their trading accounts in a way that best aligns with their investment needs and principles. By offering local investors the option to choose between Islamic and conventional bank funding for their Webull accounts, we aim to deliver inclusive, seamless and accessible trading experiences for all investors. We are also committed to enhancing the experience of local investors by offering a fully localised version of the Webull MY trading app. This feature allows users to translate all content -- from portfolio displays to the latest local and international news, as well as the educational materials provided - into Bahasa Melayu, ensuring an accessible and tailored experience for our Malaysian users. We are proud to support the needs of Malaysia's investment community and remain committed to developing innovative products that enhance convenience and accessibility for investors."

Webull Malaysia Is The First Online Retail Brokerage To Launch An Islamic Banking Channel, Enabling Shariah-Compliant Funding Options To Trade MY & US Markets
Featuring four distinct control modes, app-controlled 10-color RGB LED lighting, and an internal emergency escape mechanism, the SmartSlide sets a new benchmark for safety and usability in the aftermarket truck bed category
DALLAS, May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Wolfbox, a leader in off-road dash cams and electronic automotive accessories, has launched the SmartSlide electric sliding tonneau cover, the newest addition to the brand's growing auto accessories lineup. Designed for outdoor enthusiasts and everyday truck drivers, SmartSlide delivers a versatile multi-mode control system, app-controlled 10-color RGB LED lighting, and an easily accessible internal emergency escape mechanism.
A tonneau cover is a truck bed cover that protects contents from weather and theft, and as an aftermarket product has conventionally been a simple, functional add-on. With SmartSlide, Wolfbox has created an advanced user-centric system that integrates automation, safety and real-world usability to make it easier to secure and access truck cargo.
SmartSlide is compatible with a wide range of popular truck models—including the Ford F-150, Raptor, Lightning and Maverick; Chevrolet Silverado 1500; GMC Sierra 1500; Toyota Tacoma and Tundra; and Ram 1500—and more vehicle compatibility is in the pipeline.
A New Safety and Control Standard for Tonneau Covers
SmartSlide is engineered for flexibility and ease of use, featuring one of the most versatile multi-mode control systems available in a tonneau cover. Drivers can open and close the tonneau cover via four distinct control methods:
- App-based control for remote access
- Dedicated key fob remote
- Physical side-mounted buttons
- Manual override for fail-safe reliability
The open-close system is fully electric, offering more consistent operation than manual covers. With precise, repeatable sealing and locking every time, SmartSlide ensures cargo remains protected and secure without requiring the driver to repeatedly adjust the locking mechanism. This "set and forget" approach gives drivers consistent confidence in the security of their truck bed at all times.
A standout safety feature of SmartSlide is the emergency escape button located on the inside of the truck bed. This safeguard ensures occupants can always open the cover from inside the bed—an important consideration for enclosed cargo scenarios. While other tonneau covers are focused solely on securing cargo, Wolfbox sets a new safety standard for aftermarket truck bed systems.
Engineered for the Real Outdoors
SmartSlide is built to withstand the demanding conditions found across North America. The tonneau cover is engineered to operate in extreme temperatures ranging from -22 to 185°F (-30 to 85°C). The system features an IP56-rated waterproof motor, automotive-grade sealing components, a built-in drainage system, and a full-perimeter sealing design to help protect against rain, snow and dust.
An intelligent obstacle detection system adds an additional layer of protection by halting operation if resistance such as ice buildup is detected, while high-density self-cleaning brushes automatically sweep away dust and debris as the cover operates.
Beyond protecting the contents of the truck bed, SmartSlide is also designed to support weight. Constructed from 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, SmartSlide has an impressive 800-pound (362 kg) static load capacity. This allows the tonneau cover to support demanding use cases such as mounting rooftop tents, cargo carriers and overlanding equipment. To top it all off, integrated T-slot side rails allow for seamless accessory attachment without drilling—enabling users to expand their setup into a fully modular cargo system.
To make cargo management easier at night, Wolfbox added 10-color RGB ED ambient lighting in SmartSlide—a first for tonneau covers. The nifty mobile app lets users switch between task lighting for loading and unloading gear and ambient atmosphere lighting at campsites.
The Wolfbox SmartSlide is now available through the official Wolfbox website for auto gear and Amazon at just $1,999.99 (originally $2,399).
