The company added that the integration will provide real-time transaction data, giving businesses “immediate insights” into sales and operational performance.
Payment Asia chief operating officer Paul Tang said: “We are thrilled to partner with PayMe by HSBC, a widely adopted payment platform in Hong Kong. This integration underscores our commitment to providing innovative and comprehensive payment solutions to our merchants, not only expanding our customer base but also enhancing the overall payment experience.
“The real-time transaction data provided by our merchant applications and Smart POS Terminals will further equip businesses with valuable insights to make better decisions.”
PayMe by HSBC head Lawrence Li said: “Like any forward-looking city, Hong Kong needs a robust digital payment network to support its journey toward becoming a leading smart city. Achieving this vision requires a sizable ecosystem—on both the merchant and customer sides.
“Through our partnership with Payment Asia, we hope to play a key role in Hong Kong’s smart city development: helping merchants reach over 3.3 million PayMe users, while connecting our PayMe community to a wider network of merchants.”
The companies said the partnership is intended to broaden acceptance options for merchants and support checkout flows across Payment Asia’s merchant base.
Payment Asia said it plans to work with additional partners to build “a more comprehensive and intelligent payment ecosystem” for merchants in Hong Kong.
