In Thailand, Cash is the king, but Thai people have migrated to cashless payments.
Many Asian countries created a QR code system payment that are available for everyone with a Thai Bank Account and are easy to use to pay for items or send money.
PromptPay is a service created by the Bank of Thailand, it allows the transfer of money between bank accounts (and electronic wallets) using phone numbers or citizen IDs.
In many places in Thailand, you can see printed QR codes that allow for easy payment for merchants.
Users just need to open the bank app, scan the code, put the amount to transfer and confirm the transaction.
**YOU ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A THAI BANK ACCOUNT
QR transfers are handy for vendors so they do not have large amounts of cash on hand.
