MoMo users who wish to make payments on the Grab app can easily access and manage their funds from various sources available on the MoMo app. This includes MoMo e-wallet, linked bank accounts and MoMo Pay Later – a pioneering product in the local market that aligns with the global trend of ‘Buy Now Pay Later’.

This partnership aims to provide users with a secure and hasslefree cashless payment experience. Also, it allows the two brands to become more integrated in the everyday life of local consumers. 

With this partnership, MoMo has been available on the most popular platforms serving Vietnamese users with daily needs of shopping, entertainment, travel, e-commerce, insurance, public services payment, etc. Using just a certain convenient app, MoMo users can perform One Touch Payment to fulfill almost all everyday needs anytime and anywhere.

For Grab, this integration enables the superapp to further expand its portfolio of cashless payment solutions on the platform to maximise convenience for Grab users. Grab now offers a large variety of cashless payment options from linked cards to e-wallets provided by leading fintechs in Vietnam.

Mr. Alejandro Osorio, CEO, Grab Vietnam said: “‘We welcome MoMo to our superapp platform.

Not only serving as a payment solution or providing financial services, we’ve built our app to meet the local market demand for diverse quotidian services. The team-up of Grab and MoMo brings in a comprehensive digital experience for the locals. In a very potential market with rapid digital transformation, this partnership will help both sides to leverage opportunities and create greater values for users and business entities.”
