by
iFAST Global Bank
We’re excited to introduce Worldwide Scan & Pay, a new way to make fast, secure cross-currency payments across borders, directly from your iFAST account.
With iFAST Global Bank, you can open an account from anywhere, scan & pay worldwide, bringing you a truly seamless global banking experience.
What is Worldwide Scan & Pay?
Worldwide Scan & Pay connects you to one of the world’s largest QR payment networks, letting you pay simply by scanning a QR code through the iFAST GB app across 220 markets and 150 million+ merchants worldwide.
No cash. No cards. Just scan and go.
Why You’ll Love It:
Fast & Convenient – Complete payments in seconds with a simple scan
Global Reach – Pay at participating merchants across multiple countries
Secure Transactions – Built with robust security for peace of mind
Seamless Integration – Pay directly from your iFAST account, no extra steps
Cross-Currency Payments* – We handle the currency conversion for you, so there’s no need to convert before you travel.
*Scan & Pay only supports Cross-Currency payments and not same currency payments.
How Cross-Currency Payments Work
Simply scan and pay overseas merchants in their local currency using your available balance, for example:
• Paying Hong Kong merchants in HKD using your USD balance.
• Paying Malaysia merchants in MYR using your GBP balance.
• Paying Germany merchants in EUR using your SGD balance.
Paying in the same currency, for example, paying a Hong Kong merchant in HKD using your HKD balance, is not supported.
Availability & Expansion Plans
Worldwide Scan & Pay is currently available at participating merchants that support QR payments.
Visit our website or app for the latest supported countries and QR schemes.
Simply update your app and try this new feature!
The future of banking is here, and we’d love you to be part of it.
Banking Without Boundaries
*Availability of QR payments may vary by country and merchant. T&Cs apply.
