The introduction of K PLUS Laos aims to deliver superior financial experiences to customers in Lao PDR with this all-in-one application that can comprehensively meet their needs for daily financial transactions, including payment, domestic funds transfer and withdrawal, as well as international funds transfer. The K PLUS Laos application boasts new features, such as bill payment and K eSavings. It was unveiled at the Crown Plaza Vientiane Hotel, Lao PDR, October 19, 2023.
The launch of K PLUS Laos is another impressive milestone of KBank's service expansion abroad in line with KBank's vision to be a "Regional Bank" that strives to improve the quality of life of retail and business customers through digital financial innovations. As KBank sees the capability of Lao PDR in promoting a cashless society, KBank pioneered the provision of e-wallet here in 2018. This has led to the launch of K PLUS Laos, which is expected to fully meet the needs of local customers, making financial transactions easier and more convenient for everyone. Presently, KBank offers the K PLUS application in three ASEAN countries, namely Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos, with a total of over 21.8 million users in the region.
