New Payment System 'Tagthai' Introduced for Tourists in Thailand

Thailand has launched 'Tagthai,' a new payment system designed to facilitate financial transactions for tourists without the need for a local bank account. The system requires only a passport for registration and is accessible via a smartphone application, provided users have an active data connection. Currently, top-up facilities for the service are limited but are expected to expand as the system gains traction. While primarily targeted at tourists, 'Tagthai' may also appeal to expatriates and residents concerned about banking security. The introduction of this system reflects Thailand's ongoing efforts to enhance the convenience and safety of financial transactions for visitors, promoting a more seamless travel experience.
