Malaysia chosen as launchpad for Japan's NTT DATA payment suite
KUALA LUMPUR: Japan's NTT DATA Payment Services has launched ADAPTIS, a new suite of integrated payment solutions that combines online and in-store payment capabilities, starting with Malaysia as its first market.
The platform is designed to support real-time transactions, automated invoicing, installment payments, cash flow management and omnichannel integration.
It features five core offerings namely ADAPTIS in-store, e-commerce, financing, enterprise and value-added services.
Group chief executive officer Sean Hesh said ADAPTIS allows businesses to work through a single point of contact and access services across the broader NTT DATA ecosystem.
"Malaysia is our first launch market, followed by Thailand and the Philippines," he said at the launch event here today.
He added the solution is tailored to local payment preferences while drawing on NTT DATA's global infrastructure.
NTT DATA Japan global payments and services head Shinichiro Nishikawa said the brand reflects shifting demands in the payments industry, including the rise of embedded finance and loyalty offerings.
"Digital-first services are essential not only in retail but across entire supply chains," he said.
