Uber Asia Pacific chief business officer Brooks Entwistle said: “Asia has a unique payment ecosystem, and we are committed to serving customers the way they like to be served. That means expanding payment options and embracing mobile wallets.”
Established in 2007, MoMo has the backing of Standard Chartered Bank and global investment bank Goldman Sachs.
