One
such innovation that has been recently unveiled to the public eye is the
full-scale nationwide rollout of its QR technology where users can conveniently
perform their transactions and make payments using their mobile devices just by
tapping the scan function on the Paymaya mobile app and scanning the merchant's
Paymaya QR code. The said technology is available at Smart Stores nationwide; canteens
inside partner schools like STI; commercial establishments in cashless cities
such as Muntinlupa and Malabon; and even popular merchants within Smart Spots
in key cities such as Baguio, Cebu and Davao that are enabled via WiFi
connectivity.
Then
there is Paymaya's partnership with Facebook which allows the former's services
to become available and easily accessible via Facebook Messenger. Slated to
benefit most of the country's 50 million Facebook users, Paymaya on Messenger would
allow users to create their own account, pay their bills, purchase mobile load
and even send money to their Facebook friends through the country's top
messaging app today.
And
then there are the Paymaya ID Plus cards and Tap-to-Pay powered by Paymaya
Business in partnership with Metro Pacific Tollways Corporation (MPTC) which
are starting to become a huge help within communities and schools across the
nation and motorists. Paymaya ID Plus cards which are served as both an identification
and prepaid payment card has already been rolled out in Malolos, Bulacan;
Balanga City, Bataan; Muntinlupa City; Catbalogan City, Samar; Tacloban City;
and recently in Malabon City as well as in partner schools like STI. Meanwhile,
Tap-to-Pay provides motorists with a more effective payment option for a
hassle-free and seamless motoring experience considering that it is initially
accepted at NLEX, SCTEX and CAVITEX.
In
the near future, payment technologies enabled by Paymaya will become available
online and across popular food chains, supermarkets and even shopping malls. In
fact, McDonald's, Army Navy, Domino's Pizza and Gaisano Supermarkets are
already committed to embrace the new technologies offered to them. But that's not
all. Paymaya will also rollout these new innovations within Smart retail
partners which even include sari-sari stores. With that in mind, this is how
Paymaya will definitely change the game and redefine the digital lifestyle
landscape for every Filipino in today's modern world even the unbanked.
