Opened in January 1985 as Funan Centre, the mall was then refurbished in 1992 and subsequently adopted the name Funan The IT Mall in 1997 to reflect its current focus on IT related products and gadgets..
It then renamed to Funan Digitalife Mall, and under its new owner – CapitalMall Trust‘s decision, it ceased operations on June 30, 2016, and was subsequently demolished by the end of 2016.
