ShopeePay QR payments reach Samsung Wallet in two markets

ShopeePay QR payments are now available through Samsung Wallet in Singapore and Vietnam. A shopper can scan a participating merchant’s code in the wallet and use a payment method linked to a ShopeePay account. Samsung says the purchase can be completed without switching between the two apps.

Acceptance uses ShopeePay through NETS QR in Singapore and VietQR in Vietnam. This connects the wallet to supported merchant payment services; it is not a promise that an arbitrary QR code at any shop will work. Customers can earn Shopee Coins on eligible purchases.

Samsung Pay is also a checkout option on Shopee in the two markets. Separately, customers can use ShopeePay, including supported SPayLater options, when buying Samsung products on Samsung.com. Samsung plans to keep expanding acceptance across its physical retail channels in Southeast Asia.

Both integrations are expected in Malaysia in the coming months. That is a planned extension, rather than confirmed local availability. The announcement gives no precise launch date there, no merchant-by-merchant rollout list and no measured result for payment completion or repeat use.

Keeping the scan and payment in a wallet a customer already uses could remove a point of friction. For a merchant, the useful change is another way for an eligible shopper to reach its existing acceptance setup. The benefit still depends on finding the option, confirming payment and handling a failed attempt clearly.

The next useful question is whether customers return to this flow after trying it. Repeat payments and successful completion at participating shops would reveal more than the size of either brand’s wider audience. Retail teams can test the full purchase and refund journey before promoting a faster experience. A scan alone should not be counted as a completed purchase or evidence of repeat use.
