The ever-increasing smartphone users in the Asia-Pacific region are encouraging services and solutions-based companies to mark their digital presence and enable smartphone users to shop and engage with different services. The concept of cashless payment methods arose due to the inconvenience in physical transactions. Therefore, there is a sheer demand for ePayment platforms that will ease the burden of doing transactions with physical currency. Considering the extreme growth of digital platforms, ePayments are the helping hands eliminating the extensive need for physical currency. According to Joseph Chan, the Founder, and CEO of AsiaPay, mobile and wallet payment systems are considered as the more commonly used payment methods in online sites, which are greatly useful in completing a purchase online or in a brick and mortar store. Similarly, mobile and wallet payment transactions are simplifying the money transfer and payments in leading countries like China, India, Thailand, South Korea, and many others.
Additionally, the rapid digital transformation in every industry has also engulfed the financial sector. However, there are countries like the Philippines, Indonesia which lack the digital infrastructure to provide facilities of seamless digital payments that are preferred by the banks and eCommerce platforms. In the case of card payments on eCommerce platforms, the secured payment gateway ensures the safety of every cardholder’s card and personal data. Therefore, security and powerful integrated infrastructure are the two prime essentials to establish a digital economy and grow with the evolving world.
