Grab partners fintech firm in Vietnam for cashless payments

The partnership's features will roll out by Q4.

Grab teamed up with Vietnam fintech firm Moca to leverage each other’s technology expertise and to roll out payments for Vietnamese consumers and small & medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by Q4, an announcement revealed.

The partnership will allow Moca-enabled merchants to benefit from Grab’s large customer base, comprising both driver-partners and consumers across Vietnam.

Meanwhile, Grab’s customers will soon have access to use the payments services developed by Moca including bill payments, airtime top-up, as well as paying at retail stores such as McDonalds and 7-Eleven.

“This strategic collaboration with Moca marks an important milestone for Grab in Vietnam as we seek to accelerate our growth in one of the fastest growing economies in Southeast Asia,” Grab financial group Vietnam head Nguyen Tuan Anh said.

The ride-hailing firm established a research and development centre in Ho Chi Minh City back in March 2017 and officially launched the centre a few weeks ago as part of its global R&D network of six centres that includes Bangalore, Beijing, Jakarta, Seattle and Singapore.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
