Visa introduces Click to Pay with leading banks and payment facilitators in Vietnam, transforming the online shopping experience

The Sun10-06-2025
HCMC, VIETNAM – Media OutReach Newswire – 9 June 2025 – Visa, a world leader in digital payments, is introducing its issuer-offered Click to Pay solution to the market. Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MB), Vietnam Technological and Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Techcombank), JSC Bank for Foreign Trade of Vietnam (Vietcombank), Vietnam Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Industry and Trade (VietinBank), and Vietnam Prosperity Joint-Stock Commercial Bank (VPBank) have been the pioneer banks in adopting the solution. For Techcombank and VPBank, Visa cardholders can experience the solution starting today. On the acceptance side, Click to Pay has been adopted by Ngan Luong Payment Gateway JSC (Alepay Gateway), and VietUnion Online Services Corporation (Payoo), Sai Gon Thuong Tin Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Sacombank), and Vietnam Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Industry and Trade (VietinBank).
Click to Pay simplifies online payments by allowing cardholders to complete transactions with just a few clicks, without needing to enter lengthy card and shipping information. It provides consumers with a fast, secure and convenient checkout experience with global acceptance, as Click to Pay is now enabled in even more places where cardholders want to shop online.
According to Visa's Green Shoots Radar survey, which surveyed 1,000 Vietnamese online, 99% of surveyed consumers had shopped online in the last 12 months[1], highlighting the rapid expansion of Vietnam's e-commerce sector. By using an email address or mobile number to verify identity, shoppers can bypass the traditional checkout process, eliminating the need to enter extensive details. Additionally, Click to Pay utilizes cutting-edge technology and global security standards to enhance the safety of information and transactions, providing cardholders with greater peace of mind when making online payments. Click to Pay not only saves time for customers but also reduces cart abandonment rates, benefiting both consumers and retailers.
'Visa is committed to driving innovation in the payments landscape and enabling a seamless, secure, and convenient online shopping experience for consumers. With e-commerce being so ubiquitous in everyday Vietnamese life and in line with the Vietnamese government's digitization goals, we are excited to bring this innovative solution to Vietnamese consumers through the support of our key banking partners. Click to Pay with Visa will transform the way people shop online, preparing them for the future of a more connected digital economy,' said Ms. Dung Dang, Visa Country Manager for Vietnam and Laos.
Click to Pay is now available to Techcombank and VPBank Visa cardholders to enroll via the issuer's banking app or participating online merchants. Consumers can look for the Click to Pay icon at participating online merchants both domestically and abroad to enjoy a faster, more secure, and convenient checkout experience.
In Vietnam, Visa has partnered with Payoo – a payment platform serving as a key intermediary for online retail networks – to integrate Click to Pay across Payoo's merchant ecosystem. Participating partners include KOI Thé, UrBox Trading, AEONESHOP, Galaxy Cinema, ACFC, Maison Online, NEM, Elsa English, GearVN, Vietrace365, Hop on Hop off, among others. In the near future, Visa cardholders who use Click to Pay at Payoo-affiliated merchants will enjoy exclusive promotional offers, helping to accelerate the shift toward a more seamless and cashless shopping experience.
Shoppers on platforms such as LG Electronics Vietnam, British Council, PVI Insurance, PropertyGuru Vietnam (batdongsan.com), Mai Nguyen Electronics, and Triumph International Vietnam can enjoy frictionless transactions, as payments are processed through the Alepay Gateway, provided by Ngan Luong Payment Gateway JSC. More merchants are expected to participate in the coming months.
Click to Pay is designed to transform digital checkouts and meet EMVCo standards. It utilises the Visa Token Service (VTS) to provide multiple layers of advanced security, enhancing authorization rates and reducing fraud in digital commerce. By replacing sensitive card information, such as the 16-digit Primary Account Numbers (PANs), with tokens, VTS can reduce fraud by 58%[2] and increase authorization rates by an average of 2.5% in Asia Pacific[3], compared to PAN-based card-not-present (CNP) transactions. Click to Pay with Visa simplifies the checkout experience for customers – it's like contactless payments in-store, but for online shopping.

The total sample size is 14,250 respondents across 14 Asia-Pacific countries, including Vietnam, with male and female participants aged 18 to 65 years old.

Ringgit ends higher on regional trade optimism

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit closed higher against the US dollar today, supported by improved regional sentiment following a new United States-Vietnam trade deal, said SPI Asset Management managing partner Stephen Innes. At 6 pm, the local note rose to 4.2195/2255 versus the greenback from Wednesday's close of 4.2245/2305. Innes said the agreement to impose a reduced 20 per cent tariff on Vietnamese exports, down from a previously threatened 46 per cent has lifted risk appetite and supported regional currencies. "The markets see this as a positive sign for global trade recovery, which helped boost the ringgit,' he told Bernama. Innes also said that the weaker-than-expected US ADP jobs data, with only 33,000 jobs added in June, reinforced expectations of two US rate cuts this year, pressuring the greenback. He noted, however, that market focus might shift on tonight's non-farm payrolls report, with consensus at 106,000. At the close, the ringgit traded mostly lower against a basket of major currencies. It shrunk against the euro to 4.9756/9827 from 4.9748/9818, and depreciated against the Japanese yen to 2.9333/9376 from 2.9316/9360. However, it appreciated versus the British pound to 5.7621/7703 from 5.7859/7941 yesterday. The local note traded mixed against its ASEAN counterparts. It improved vis-à-vis the Singapore dollar to 3.3146/3196 from 3.3167/3217, and rose against the Thai baht to 13.0211/0457 from 13.0233/0482. It slipped against the Indonesian rupiah to 260.5/261.0 from 259.9/260.5, and weakened against the Philippine peso to 7.50/7.51 from 7.49/7.51 previously. - Bernama

Indonesia says it will sign US$34bil pact with US partners ahead of tariff talks deadline

Indonesia's Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said the MoU is due to be signed on July 7, 2025. - Photo: Reuters JAKARTA: Indonesia will sign a pact worth US$34 billion with business partners next week to boost purchases from the United States, as part of efforts to strike a trade deal with Washington ahead of the July 9 deadline, Indonesia's chief economic minister said on Thursday (July 3). The deal would include increasing imports of fuels and investment by Indonesian companies in energy and agriculture sectors in the United States. Separately, flag carrier Garuda Indonesia also said it is in talks to buy up to 75 jets from Boeing. Jakarta is facing a 32% tariff in US markets and has previously offered to increase US imports to facilitate trade talks between the two sides. Indonesia enjoyed a goods trade surplus of $17.9 billion with the United States in 2024, according to the U.S. Trade Representative. Speaking to journalists, Minister Airlangga Hartarto said the memorandum of understanding due to be signed on July 7 will deploy the $34 billion for new Indonesian investments and purchases in the United States. "This shows that government, regulators, state-owned enterprises and the private sector are together in responding to the imposition of US reciprocal tariffs," Airlangga said. He said that by addressing the trade balance with the United States, Indonesia hoped to get a better trade deal than the one struck with Vietnam. The United States announced on Wednesday that it will place a lower-than-promised 20% tariff on many Vietnamese exports, down from the original 46% announced by President Donald Trump in April. Meanwhile, Garuda's potential jet purchase may include 737 Max 8 and 787 jets, its chief executive Wamildan Tsani told reporters after meeting Airlangga. It was unclear whether Garuda's discussion with Boeing is part of the tariff negotiations. The airline is struggling to recover from the impact of the pandemic. It secured a $405 million loan from sovereign wealth fund Danantara Indonesia in June for maintenance, repair and overhaul of its fleet. - Reuters
