BIDV Expands Cross-Border QR Payment Connectivity with South Korea and China

Experience borderless payments

Following Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia, BIDV continues to expand its cross-border payment journey to South Korea and China, making your shopping, dining, and travel experiences truly "borderless."

With BIDV’s VietQR Pay service, tourists as well as foreign nationals from South Korea and China living and working in Vietnam can shop, dine, and enjoy entertainment without carrying cash. By simply scanning the QR code at BIDV’s payment acceptance points, customers can easily pay using their own banking app or local e-wallet. The system automatically converts exchange rates in real-time, ensuring transparent, secure, and fast transactions.

An optimal solution for businesses

Cross-border payment connectivity not only offers convenience to international tourists but also provides a comprehensive payment solution for businesses in Vietnam.

The service helps store owners, businesses, and tourism venues in Vietnam:

• Expand their customer base, particularly foreign customers from South Korea and China

• Offer diverse payment methods

• Enhance the service experience—fast, convenient, and secure payments.

To date, BIDV has expanded its cross-border QR payment ecosystem with:

• South Korea & China: Inbound payments to Vietnam.

• Thailand, Laos & Cambodia: Two-way bilateral payments.

This expansion of connections with these markets reaffirms BIDV’s pioneering role in promoting digital payments, contributing positively to trade promotion and sustainable tourism development between Vietnam and neighboring countries in the region.
