Shopee adds JCB International as new payment option

They will offer year-round and seasonal discounts.

Shopee and Japan-based payment brand JCB International have entered into a regional agreement to provide online merchants and shoppers with enhanced payment options in Southeast Asia, according to a press release.

Through this collaboration, the two brands will jointly provide quality e-commerce and payments services for the Southeast Asian market.

The partnership will launch in July in Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam, followed by Singapore and the Philippines in the following months. JCB will offer year-round and seasonal discounts and an additional payment method for shoppers. Shopee will also promote participating stores that support JCB.

With more Southeast Asian consumers going online through their mobile, Shopee has been focussed on driving digital payments in the region. In 2019, Shopee launched ShopeePay, its own integrated mobile wallet.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

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.
