The trend of using digital payment methods at POS in Asia-Pacific is mirrored by an increasing number of merchants and businesses embracing digital and contactless payment solutions for in-store purchases. Prominent players in this sphere, such as Singapore’s Grab and Indonesia’s GoTo, have emerged as influential catalysts in facilitating seamless contactless payments for a range of services, encompassing ride-sharing to food delivery.
