Under HKT Payment Limited, the Tap & Go1 mobile wallet is supporting the Hong Kong Monetary Authority’s FPS x PromptPay QR Payment service as one of the first digital wallets to participate in the linkage between Hong Kong’s FPS and Thailand’s PromptPay, launching a series of offers. 

Tap & Go users can enjoy the new overseas payment experience while local merchants can accept PromptPay payments from Thai tourists via FPS.

PromptPay in Thailand is similar to FPS in Hong Kong – both are easy to use. Designated Tap & Go users can simply scan the FPS x PromptPay QR codes using their Tap & Go mobile wallets to make FPS payments at over 8 million merchants supporting PromptPay in Thailand, avoiding not only a trip to convert Hong Kong Dollars to Thai Baht but also the relevant handling fees. 

Tap & Go’s pay-as-you-go design and App-to-App top-up features give users flexible control over their spending and the ability to conveniently top up their e-wallets.

Time-limited spending rebates

Eligible users can earn up to HK$40 Stored Value Rebate5 by completing a total of six transactions with a cumulative spending of HK$300 or more (and a minimum of HK$50 spent in each transaction), enjoy HK$25 Stored Value Rebate for the first HK$50 spent by scanning the FPS x PromptPay QR code using Tap & Go’s “Scan to Pay” feature at merchants who accept PromptPay in Thailand. By enjoying offers while spending, users can make the most of their travels.
