Grab to install GrabPay in tourist spots

It inked a deal with the Singapore Tourism Board.

Grab and the Singapore Tourism Board (STB) signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to focus on installing GrabPay at tourist hotspots, amongst other initiatives.

According to a press release, Grab and STB will roll out GrabPay at hawker centres, dining establishments, cultural and lifestyle precincts, shopping centres and tourist attractions.

This will allow Grab and STB exchange insights on visitor preferences.

Tourists can experience these hotspots without having to change for local currency, and redeem GrabRewards points through the Grab app to discover other experiences and events.

Grab will be sharing its booking APIs in phases through STB’s Tourism Information & Services Hub (TIH), allowing select tourism businesses to integrate Grab’s various tools into their own digital platforms.

Grab will offer extensive mobility solutions through its range of services, from GrabCoach to GrabCar Premium, to STB’s partners in the Meetings, Incentive Travel, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) industry in Singapore.
