Under these circumstances, we were quite surprised and appreciative that ShopeePay remained confident in collaborating with RRQ. It was a mental boost for us," said RRQ CEO Andrian Pauline at a media conference.
According to Andrian, the collaboration with ShopeePay, one of the biggest brands in Southeast Asia, means more than just a commercial partnership.

Andrian said the collaboration not only targets the e-commerce aspect, but also the real needs of gamers in their daily digital payment activities.
Going forward, RRQ and ShopeePay are opening up opportunities to deepen service integration into the RRQ ecosystem, including strengthening game top-up services connected to digital payment platforms.
Andrian said this step is expected to expand ShopeePay's penetration while also providing convenience for the RRQ community.
"This isn't just e-commerce, it's more than that. From a gamer perspective , they need top-ups and other payment methods. We hope this collaboration with ShopeePay will benefit the RRQ community and the gaming community in general," said Andrian.
