Liquid Group today announced the launch of the Vietnam–Singapore Cross-border QR Payment Service, in collaboration with the National Payment Corporation of Vietnam (NAPAS) and VietinBank.
The launch marks another significant milestone in expanding RoamQR™, Liquid Group's interoperable cross-border QR payment network, strengthening digital payment connectivity between Singapore and Vietnam while supporting tourism, trade and broader digital economic integration across ASEAN.
Through this collaboration, users of participating Singapore payment apps connected via RoamQR™ can seamlessly scan and pay at VietQRGlobal acceptance points across Vietnam using their familiar home payment apps. Transactions are processed in real time with direct currency conversion between Singapore Dollars (SGD) and Vietnamese Dong (VND), delivering a secure, convenient and familiar payment experience for travellers while enabling Vietnamese merchants to serve more international customers through their existing QR payment infrastructure.
As cross-border travel and digital commerce continue to grow across Southeast Asia, interoperable payment infrastructure plays an increasingly important role in delivering seamless payment experiences for consumers while simplifying acceptance for merchants.
The Vietnam–Singapore connectivity further strengthens RoamQR™'s expanding regional network, bringing together national QR payment systems, payment applications, merchant acquirers and financial institutions through a single interoperable framework.
"We are delighted to partner NAPAS and VietinBank to bring Vietnam–Singapore cross-border QR payment connectivity to life. Through RoamQR™, our goal is to make cross-border payments simple, interoperable and trusted, so that travellers can pay overseas using the apps they already know, while merchants can serve international customers without added complexity. This launch is an important step in strengthening digital payment connectivity between Singapore and Vietnam, and we look forward to working with our partners to expand a secure and scalable two-way payment ecosystem across ASEAN."

RoamQR™ continues to expand its interoperable network by connecting national QR payment systems across Asia-Pacific, enabling consumers to Scan Local. Pay Global.
As the network grows, Liquid Group remains committed to working closely with payment networks, financial institutions and ecosystem partners to deliver secure, scalable and interoperable payment infrastructure that supports the continued growth of regional tourism, commerce and the digital economy.
RoamQR™ is Liquid Group's interoperable QR payment network, connecting national QR payment systems into a single cross-border acceptance framework. It enables consumers to pay overseas using their familiar home payment apps while allowing merchants to accept international QR payments through their existing domestic QR infrastructure.
By connecting domestic national QR payment systems through a common interoperability layer, RoamQR™ is making cross-border QR payments simpler, more secure and more accessible.
