AppotaPay showcases payment solutions for retailers, restaurant chains at VIFS 2026

AppotaPay, a member of the Appota Group, showcased its payment solutions for retailers and restaurant chains at the Vietnam International Franchise Show (VIFS) 2026, held from October 29 to 31 at the Saigon Exhibition and Convention Center in Ho Chi Minh City. The event, which brought together domestic and international brands, franchisors, restaurant operators, and retail technology providers, saw AppotaPay introduce two reports examining purchasing power and consumer spending in Vietnam's retail and food and beverage sectors.

The retail report highlighted a 12.8% year-on-year rise in sales of retail goods in Vietnam during the first nine months of 2026, while the F&B report noted a discrepancy between consumer spending intentions and business expansion plans. AppotaPay's SmartPOS terminals accept domestic and international bank cards, e-wallets, and QR code payments, while its Partner platform offers centralized revenue and transaction monitoring across multiple outlets.

For online businesses, AppotaPay provides a payment gateway and a Payment Link feature, allowing merchants to collect payments for orders placed through social media and messaging platforms. Additionally, AppotaPay introduced QR Global, a cross-border payment service supporting QR payments through selected banking applications and e-wallets from various Asian countries.
