UnionPay International CEO Cai Jianbo said: “UnionPay QR Code payments have already been launched in Hong Kong and Macau.

“This time, we made another major breakthrough in Singapore, which not only demonstrates that UnionPay is accelerating the rollout of our QR Code payments worldwide, but also shows that innovation has become a significant impetus for the localized development of Chinese financial institutions that have gone abroad.”

Furthermore, UnionPay International also has inked an agreement with AsiaMalls Management to launch UnionPay QR Code payments across all six malls.
