Within 12 months from launching in Japan, HIVEX successfully achieved full coverage for Taiwanese travelers. Nearly every consumption scenario for Taiwanese travelers in Japan now supports HIVEX’s cross-border mobile payment service. Based on HIVEX’s internal data, the proportion of Taiwanese travelers using mobile payments in Japan has significantly increased, demonstrating the huge potential of cross-border mobile payments in the travel market. Building on its success in Japan, HIVEX is now turning its attention to South Korea. By integrating with South Korea’s electronic payment systems, HIVEX expects to achieve full coverage in South Korea in a shorter time frame. This expansion plan will not only further enhance the HIVEX travelers’ payment experience in South Korea but is also expected to promote the adoption of cross-border payments in the South Korean market.
