OxPay has been appointed as the digital payment provider and loyalty programme manager across 29 Royal Sporting House (RSH) stores in Singapore and Malaysia.
Under the digital payment services programme, RSH’s customers will be able to purchase items with their credit and debit cards as well as via DuitNow, GrabPay and ShopeePay. Buy now pay later (BNPL) schemes such as Atome and IOUPay will also be available.
So far, one RSH store in Malaysia and five RSH stores in Singapore have completed the pilot testing of digital payment services. The pilot testing of the Gulf Marketing Group (GMG) gift card solution under the loyalty programme has also been completed.
In its statement on June 21, OxPay says it is progressively rolling out both the digital payment services and GMG gift card solution to 17 RSH stores in Malaysia and 12 RSH stores in Singapore.
