-

KUALA LUMPUR: 11street is tapping into the cashless payment trend through its partnershi­p with Boost to offer shoppers a more convenient way to pay for their online purchases.

According to its press statement, this new collaborat­ion is the first eWallet service to offer online shoppers the ease and security of both mobile payment and web payment options via QR code and pin entry on an eCommerce platform.

Boost has over three million users, and online and offline merchants located in over 40,000 touchpoint­s. Boost aims to revolution­ise the way Malaysian consumers transact by creating a seamless payment experience without cash or cards.

Boost chief executive officer Christophe­r Tiffin said: “In line with building a digital nation, our partnershi­p with 11street is a strategic collaborat­ion to provide a greater user experience for our customers.

“Through this partnershi­p, Boost users and 11street customers can shop with ease, without having to access multiple apps. A customer can simply open the Boost app, shop on the 11street storefront within the app and pay with their Boost wallet as seamlessly as ever. Together with 11street, we hope to create a more efficient eWallet society and online shopping community.”

11street CEO Cheong Chia Chou, added: “11street is thrilled to be teaming up with Boost to become one of the first online marketplac­es in the country to embed both mobile and web payment via eWallet services through QR code and pin entry. We’re also really excited to see our storefront on the Boost app which will give us a chance to connect with a whole new audience while providing better services to our existing customers.”

Acting as a virtual replacemen­t for the physical wallet, Boost is designed to simplify the online checkout process on 11street. It eliminates the tedium of having to manually input payment and shipping informatio­n every time a customer wants to buy something online, ensuring an easy, fast and convenient checkout process. To top it off, users can also enjoy instant shake rewards after each payment.

Boost and 11street are also deepening their partnershi­p through the integratio­n of an 11street storefront on the Boost app. Boost users will now have instant access to the online marketplac­e by clicking on the ‘Online shopping’ feature on the Boost app. Users will then be redirected to the 11street platform, where they can shop and make payment with their Boost mobile wallet.

To celebrate this partnershi­p, Boost and 11street will be offering customers ‘Boosted Daily Deals’ on exclusive items from September 28, onwards. All ‘Boosted Daily Deals’ items only available via the 11street storefront in the Boost app, while stocks last.

Apart from that, Boost and 11street is also launching a ‘Win A Car’ Campaign, where customers stand a chance to win prizes worth up to RM86,000, including 11street vouchers, game consoles, mobile phones and the grand prize of a brand new Myvi.

“We’re evolving with the technologi­cal advancemen­ts in our increasing­ly digital world to enrich and elevate our customers’ online shopping experience and provide them with better deals on products across the board.”
