7-Connect
7-Connect is a cash payment method. After selecting goods or services on the merchant’s site, consumers choose the 7-Connect logo. The merchant site then generates a 12-digit reference number, which the customer takes to a payment location. Customers can pay at a participating store. Once the payment has been received, the merchant ships the goods. This payment method is accepted at 2,600 stores in the Philippines.
Other cash-payment methods in the Philippines include Dragonpay, PesoPay and ML ePay.
The benefits of cash payment schemes in the Philippines
- Filipinos pay for just under a quarter of all online purchases, with an approximate value of US$1.1 billion, using cash (PPRO).
- Only 35% of the country’s population has a bank account. Supporting cash payments allows merchants to reach the other 65% (PPRO).
- Almost a quarter of Filipino shoppers are over the age of 34 (Statista). These older demographics are more conservative and likely to be more wedded to cash.
