123

With 123, consumers in twelve countries can pay for online purchases using cash. When they get to the online checkout, consumers choose “123”. The merchant generates a unique code, which the consumer takes to an ATM or a participating convenience store. Once the consumer has paid over the counter, the e-commerce merchant releases their purchase for shipping.

By supporting 123, merchants can sell to customers who have a connection to the Internet — for instance through a smartphone — but who don’t have a bank account. And if the customer does have a bank account, he or she can use 123 as a bank-transfer app, paying for online purchases in just a few clicks.

Other cash-payment and bank-transfer applications operating in Southeast Asia and Australasia include GoPay, GrabPay, Alfamart and DOKU.
