Samsung Wallet users in Singapore and Vietnam can now make QR payments through ShopeePay at participating merchants, following an expansion of Samsung Electronics’ partnership with the payment provider. At the same time, Samsung Pay has become a checkout option on Shopee in both markets, giving customers additional ways to use the companies’ payment services. Samsung describes the expanded arrangement as its first collaboration in Southeast Asia to support QR payments through Samsung Wallet across multiple markets, with both integrations expected to become available in Malaysia in the coming months.
QR payments through Samsung Wallet
Within Samsung Wallet, users can scan participating merchants’ QR codes directly and pay using a payment method linked to their ShopeePay account, completing transactions without switching between Samsung Wallet and ShopeePay during checkout. Merchant acceptance depends on the supported payment services, covering merchants that accept Samsung Pay as well as ShopeePay transactions via NETS QR in Singapore and VietQR in Vietnam. Those payment networks provide the local QR payment options supported by the integration in the two markets.
Customers can also earn Shopee Coins on eligible purchases made through ShopeePay, extending the payment service’s rewards to qualifying transactions initiated through Samsung Wallet. Throughout these transactions, payments continue to use the methods already linked to the customer’s ShopeePay account.
Samsung Pay checkout and wider retail acceptance
Beyond in-store QR payments, the partnership extends to online shopping, with Samsung Pay now available as a checkout option on Shopee in Singapore and Vietnam, allowing customers purchasing products through the marketplace to select Samsung Pay when completing their orders. ShopeePay is also accepted for purchases of Samsung products on Samsung.com, where the payment service supports several payment options, including SPayLater. Samsung intends to continue expanding acceptance of ShopeePay, including SPayLater, across its physical retail channels in Southeast Asia.
Carl Nordenberg, Vice President, Samsung Electronics Southeast Asia and Oceania, described the agreement as part of Samsung’s effort to give consumers greater flexibility when purchasing products online or in stores. Candice Ng, Head of Regional Partnerships at ShopeePay, emphasised the importance of connecting payment services with platforms consumers already use, and described the collaboration as part of ShopeePay’s approach to adapting its services to consumer needs across Southeast Asian markets.
In Singapore, two introductory offers accompany the rollout. Customers making their first ShopeePay payment through Samsung Wallet can receive S$4 off their purchase, while those making their first Samsung Pay payment through the Shopee app can separately receive a 20% cashback voucher. The cashback voucher promotion runs from 11 November 2026 to 31 March 2027, while stocks last and subject to terms and conditions.
