Using the Tap & Go mobile wallet app, customers only need to turn on the “Go QR” scanner to scan the merchant’s QR code, input the transaction amount and confirm the payment.Monita Leung, head of HKT Payment, said, “We have been supporting start-ups and small merchants who share the same vision in driving for a cashless city. We are confident that the introduction of ‘Go QR’ will encourage more start-ups and small merchants to go for cashless transaction given the low capital entry requirement.”
