MoMo expands cross-border QR payments to more than 60 countries

MoMo, a digital payment platform, has recently expanded its cross-border QR payment services to over 60 countries. This expansion is made possible through strategic partnerships with various payment providers, including Napas, Alipay, WeChat, PayPay, and PromptPay. Users can now conveniently pay at over 100 million merchant locations worldwide by simply scanning a QR code.

As more travelers seek hassle-free ways to manage their expenses abroad, QR payments have become increasingly popular. With MoMo, users can make payments through their preferred application without the need to adapt to different payment methods in each destination. Notable participating merchants include Big C in Thailand, 7-Eleven in Japan and South Korea, and Mixue in China.

MoMo's cross-border payment service goes beyond QR scanning. The platform also offers competitive exchange rates, ensuring users are informed before initiating any transaction. Importantly, MoMo does not charge foreign currency transaction fees, making it an attractive option for international shoppers.

In addition to QR payments, MoMo has integrated other travel-related services to cater to the needs of globetrotters. The eSIM service allows users to obtain mobile network coverage in more than 200 countries before they even leave home. This service enables users to activate an eSIM on their device and connect to local networks upon arrival, eliminating the need for physical SIM cards.

Furthermore, MoMo's flight booking service connects users with 56 international airlines, including Vietnam Airlines, AirAsia, Scoot, and STARLUX Airlines. Users can book, cancel, and manage their bookings through this integrated service, streamlining the travel planning process.
