Asia Pacific is in a mobile payment revolution: 2.6 billion people in the region use a mobile wallet today to pay conveniently online and offline, be it with provisioned cards or through bank transfers made straight from their mobile apps. But mobile wallets are yet to reach their full potential. Most are limited to domestic use, while multiple QR schemes pose a real challenge to their usefulness abroad or for larger purchases. This is where Visa can help. Visa Pay harnesses our decades of experience in payment security and global acceptance to make mobile payments safer and more seamless for consumers, who can tap, scan, or click to pay at any Visa-accepting merchant at home or abroad. It also means effortless global acceptance for merchants, as all they need to do is to display a single QR code to accept almost all forms of digital payments from their customers. Clients and partners also benefit from Visa-grade security and reliability, as their mobile wallet transactions receive the same globally trusted protections trusted by billions worldwide.
