ZaloPay
Founded by VNG in 2016, ZaloPay is one of the leading digital wallets in Vietnam. It offers mobile payment solutions for users to shop online, pay bills, make donations, and transfer money easily. With 70% of Vietnamese being unbanked and only 4% possessing a credit card, allowing customers to pay with digital wallets is crucial for the growth of online businesses in the Vietnamese market.
ZaloPay has close to 15 million users, and targets primarily young adults (20 to 35 years old) who have a high demand for mobile payments and transfers.
