Thailand is at the forefront of digital payments, part of a trend throughout Asia, according to Aileen Chew, Mastercard's country manager for Thailand and Myanmar.
Ms Chew said a recent study, Mastercard's second annual New Payments Index, found consumers in Asia-Pacific remain among the most enthusiastic adopters of digital payments in the world, with 88% having used technologies such as digital wallets, QR codes, "buy now, pay later" services, cryptocurrencies and biometrics in the last year.
