Lazada - No Banking App payment anymore?

[OneMoreFarang]

Until now I paid my Lazada shopping with my SCB banking app. Now it seems that is not possible anymore.

Luckily, I could still pay with that app in Shopee.

 

Does anybody know if that is a temporary problem or what is going on?

I never had problems with that way of payment, and it is/was very convenient.

Unless that's happened in the last 24hrs, I used Kbank no problem.

 

Just checked again, no problem

At times it seems to sometimes wink out & not show as available.....

Then, a day or two later, it becomes an option again....

I've noticed it a few times.....

Just use QR payment....using your bank app

Wow! I've been successfully using a credit card for months now, haven't bothered with SCB transfer (which DID work seamlessly).

 

Just now ordered something and saw this:

 

"Bank transfer and online banking services have been discontinued. Please switch to mobile banking or PromptPay. We apologize for any inconvenience."

 

Sh!t.

It depends on the seller, some allow only certain banks for the mobile banking option, others none at all.

As has been said above, the best is to just scan the QR Code.

The best is to use a credit card with no foreign transaction fee and 2% cash back.

I used the cash on delivery method for about a decade, lost the ability to pay cash on delivery about 2 months ago.

 

Bye Bye Lazada.

Thanks

In my case I reordered the same item from the same seller where I last purchased it a couple of months ago.

And I couldn't use the SCB all like before.

I didn't try to buy anything else yet.

Just in general why I used the SCB app payment.

In Lazada I just had to pick my purchase, then click pay, it opened the SCB app on my phone, and 2 or 3 clicks later all was paid.

That is easier than using QR code.

 

Credit card is an option. But in general, I don't want my credit card data stored in some Thai company computer...
