Shinhan Bank Vietnam Limited (Shinhan Bank) will launch its QR Pay service across all Lotte Mart Vietnam stores on Saturday.

Shinhan Bank’s QR Pay service is a core solution of Shinhan CMS (Cash Management Service), providing QR payment options via POS, real-time transaction notifications, and a comprehensive package that includes a refund process.

Customized QR pay solution for Lotte Mart

Lotte Mart Vietnam is one of the largest supermarket chains in Vietnam. The QR Pay package was jointly developed by Shinhan Bank and its partner, InfoPlus, as a customized solution specifically tailored to Lotte Mart’s operational needs.

Currently, with the traditional QR payment method, cashiers have to take photos of each receipt and reconcile them with the store manager at the end of the day. This process is not only time-consuming but also leads to mistakes during counting or the risk of losing receipts.

With Shinhan Bank’s QR Pay package, merchants will be able integrate QR Pay with their internal systems or utilize Shinhan Bank’s web platform, “Shinhan CMS”, to monitor transactions in real-time and manage payments more systematically. This ensures greater operational efficiency and enhances accuracy in fund management.

To celebrate the launch of the QR Pay service, Shinhan Bank Vietnam, in collaboration with Lotte Mart Vietnam, is hosting the "Scan QR Code – Get a Lovely Bag" promotion.

This program allows customers to experience the convenience of QR payments while receiving a practical shopping item as a gift. The program will be held over four days, including: March 29, March 30, April 5, and April 6 , 2025 at 15 Lotte Mart stores nationwide.

Accordingly, during the event, the first 200 customers per day who have a Lotte Mart membership code and complete a QR Code payment of at least VND100,000 ($3.9) using the Shinhan SOL Vietnam app (SOLapp) will receive a stylish canvas bag from Shinhan Bank.

Each customer can receive a maximum of one canvas bag per Lotte Mart store during the promotional period.For more information about the "Scan QR Code – Get a Lovely Bag" promotion, please visit https://shinhan.com.vn/en/promotion/scan-qr-now-nice-bag-in-hand-2.html or contact Shinhan Bank’s Contact Center at 1900 1577.
