Vientiane, Laos – As Laos prepares for the “Visit Laos Year 2024” and its prestigious ASEAN Chairmanship, LOCA, the preeminent eco-friendly ride-hailing network in the country, is poised to transform the tourist payment experience with its innovative digital payment solution, LOCA PAY.
In 2023, LOCA PAY established its reputation as a trusted payment service, serving over 200,000 tourists with its convenient, secure, and user-friendly platform.
LOCA PAY, an extension of LOCA’s successful ride-hailing service launched in 2022, is revolutionizing how tourists handle financial transactions in Laos. This system allows visitors to effortlessly link their credit cards and pay to the widely accepted LAO QR network, facilitating seamless payments at various merchants across the nation with 15 major banks supported. The strategic integration of LOCA PAY with LOCA’s transportation services ensures a smooth, efficient, and enjoyable travel experience for tourists in Laos.
The introduction of LOCA PAY is a response to the growing need for more advanced and secure payment methods in the burgeoning tourism sector of Laos. With limited credit card acceptance and the inconvenience of carrying cash, LOCA PAY addresses these challenges head-on, offering an all-in-one solution for tourists’ payment and transportation needs. LOCA PAY works with all major credit cards such as VISA, Master Card, JCB, AMEX, and UNION PAY.
it’s important to note that LOCA PAY is not another e-wallet; there’s no need for a traditional top-up. This innovative system allows for a ‘pay as you go’ approach, simplifying the process for tourists. By simply linking a credit card to the app, users can start their journey immediately. This feature is a game-changer, offering a hassle-free experience and eliminating the need for tourists to preload funds, which is often a limitation of other payment services.
As Laos steps into the global spotlight in 2024, LOCA PAY is not just a payment system; it’s a symbol of the country’s commitment to technological advancement and enhancing the overall visitor experience. With its user-friendly interface, extensive merchant network, and robust security features, LOCA PAY is set to become an indispensable tool for tourists exploring the rich cultural and natural landscapes of Laos.
As the excitement builds for the “Visit Laos Year 2024,” LOCA PAY stands ready to ensure that every visitor’s journey through this beautiful country is as seamless and enjoyable as possible. With its proven track record and innovative approach, LOCA PAY is set to play a pivotal role in boosting Laos’s tourism industry and elevating the country’s status on the international stage.
