PAYP

Paypay Corporation

A Japanese fintech company that runs PayPay, the country's most widely used mobile payment app, letting shoppers pay at stores, restaurants, and online by scanning QR codes and barcodes, and also send money to friends. Founded in 2018 as a joint venture of SoftBank and Yahoo Japan (with help from India's Paytm), it launched its app that October to push Japan toward a cashless economy. The name was deliberately chosen to be simple and catchy—so much so that Japanese toddlers reportedly learned to say "PayPay" before other words.
