GrabPay – Competitor Profile
GrabPay is part of a portfolio of services operating under Grab Holdings Inc., a Singapore-based mobile technology company. The company was initially founded in Malaysia under the MyTeksi brand in 2012, offering ride-hailing services. It was later rebranded to GrabTaxi. Since relocating to Singapore in 2014, the company settled with the name Grab and has since branched out into many other mobile-app-based, on-demand, services divided into four main areas: ride hailing, deliveries, financial services, and enterprise solutions. Besides operating in its home base of Singapore, Grab has services available in Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
GrabPay serves as the mobile wallet within Grab’s super-app. All of Grab’s services can be paid for using GrabPay. In addition, GrabPay can be used to pay for online as well as in-store purchases. GrabPay is the most widely accepted mobile wallet across Southeast Asia.
There is a large financially underserved market in Asia-Pacific, and the smartphone has become an essential tool to bring financial services to this group of consumers. Grab thus offers a lot of potential over the immediate to long term. This helps explain why it has attracted investments from companies around the world, including SoftBank, Didi, Toyota, and Hyundai.

“COVID-19 has caused significant interference to our business and the COVID-19 intelligence from GlobalData has helped us reach better decisions around strategy. These two highlights have helped enormously to understand the projections into the future concerning our business units, we also utilise the project database to source new projects for Liebherr-Werk to use as an additional source to pitch for new business.”
Your daily news has saved me a lot of time and keeps me up-to-date with what is happening in the market, I like that you almost always have a link to the source origin. We also use your market data in our Strategic Business Process to support our business decisions. By having everything in one place on the Intelligence Center it has saved me a lot of time versus looking on different sources, the alert function also helps with this.
Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.
