Southeast Asia's QR code ecosystem is diverse, with each country developing its own payment systems while working toward cross-border interoperability.
Country-by-Country
Thailand (PromptPay): Government-backed system integrated with citizen ID numbers. QR code payments available at most merchants. Standardised PromptPay QR codes display at every shop.
Singapore (SGQR): Singapore's unified QR code standard combines multiple payment schemes (PayNow, GrabPay, NETS) into a single QR code label that merchants display.
Indonesia (QRIS): Bank Indonesia's national QR standard unifies GoPay, OVO, DANA, ShopeePay, and banking apps under one interoperable QR code.
Malaysia (DuitNow QR): National QR standard enabling cross-bank and cross-wallet payments. Compatible with Singapore's PayNow for cross-border transfers.
Philippines (QR Ph): Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas standard for QR code payments across banks and e-wallets.
