ANTD.VN - In the digital age, Gen Z is constantly looking for fast and secure payment methods. Solutions that provide maximum convenience and support effective personal financial management will gain an advantage in the competition of modern payment methods.
Gen Z promotes digital payments
Generation Z is gradually becoming a potential customer group and has a strong influence in the global economy. Dubbed the "digital generation", Gen Z grew up with the rapid development of technology and the internet, which has shaped their preferences and consumption habits differently from previous generations. For Gen Z, the experience prioritizes speed, convenience and high security, especially in the field of payment.
Lan Anh (22 years old, student) is a fashionista. She regularly updates new trends on social networks, enjoys online shopping and uses cashless payment methods. “I appreciate services that save time and provide a convenient experience, without the hassle of entering a pin code or scanning a QR code, but must ensure security,” Lan Anh said.

Meanwhile, Minh Hoang (25 years old, travel blogger) is a passionate traveler who loves to explore new places. Hoang spends most of his time on domestic and international trips, requiring him to have a payment method that is globally accepted, convenient and secure. During his travels, Hoang often uses international cards or cash to pay for services such as hotels, meals and transportation. However, he also has certain concerns about having to manage multiple cards, or having to consider the issue of foreign currency conversion fees.
Gen Z has many different preferences, but their choice of payment method also reflects common expectations of convenience, speed, and security.
A Breakthrough in the Payment Experience for Gen Z
Recently, Minh Hoang learned about a completely new payment method called Pay by Account, developed by VPBank and the multinational card issuing organization Mastercard. “This feature helps me make transactions with just a “touch” similar to other cashless payment methods. What surprised me was that I could use money directly from my bank account instead of having to own a credit card at more than 100 million Mastercard payment acceptance points worldwide,” Hoang shared.
As the first bank to deploy Pay by Account from December 2024, VPBank continues to perfect the entire "one-touch" payment solution for individual customers, providing modern financial solutions, suitable for the lifestyle and consumer behavior of Gen Z. Not only meeting the needs for speed and convenience, Pay by Account also helps Gen Z solve the worry about spending management, when all transactions are made directly from the bank account, allowing them to easily control personal finances without having to use many other applications.

Thus, Minh Hoang's concerns about having to manage multiple cards or foreign currency conversion fees have been resolved when using Pay by Account. As for Lan Anh, she is excited: "This feature convinced me because of its convenience and maximum information security because there is no need to use or provide card information when making payments. Transactions are authenticated by fingerprint or facial recognition, account balance is clearly displayed, helping me proactively monitor and control spending."
Another benefit of cashless payments that Gen Z loves is the cashback or discount codes that banks offer in conjunction with payment partners. From now until the end of February 2025, VPBank is implementing a program to directly reduce 20,000 VND for bills from 50,000 VND when paying at Koi Thé, Family Mart; 50% cashback up to 200,000 VND for the first transaction (minimum 50,000 VND) within 30 days from the date the customer registers and uses the Pay by Account feature to pay.
“We will continue to be steadfast in our goal of developing financial products suitable for young customers, while constantly expanding our product portfolio to meet the needs of many different customer segments. Pay by Account is also one of the services that contributes to the complete set of Safety - Convenience - Profitability features of VPBank Streamlined Account” – VPBank representative said.
During the launch phase, Pay by Account is applicable to mobile devices using Android 4.4 or higher operating system with NFC support. VPBank is continuing to develop and will soon deploy this feature on iOS operating system in 2025.
