In August 2024, StarThing (Xingyun Kaowu) partnered with manufacturers to participate in two major Southeast Asian amusement exhibitions: the Indonesia International Amusement and Entertainment Equipment Exhibition (FUN ASIA EXPO) and the Ho Chi Minh City Theme Park and Amusement Equipment Exhibition (Theme Park Expo Vietnam). The StarThing booth attracted significant attention from attendees.
During the August exhibitions, StarThing established partnerships with major Indonesian merchants such as kkv, CV.CANDY DREAM, and PT ANUGERAH SEJATI LARAS, as well as with prominent Vietnamese merchants like City Game and Tigercatch.
The year 2024 has been a year of robust growth for StarThing’s overseas operations. Currently, the company’s solutions have been implemented in over ten countries and regions in Southeast Asia, with monthly device transactions on the overseas platform exceeding 30 million. This has helped more than 800 merchants achieve online mobile payment management.
Since its official launch in 2023, StarThing’s overseas solution has connected to over 30 online payment channels (including international mainstream wallets) and is available for use in countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Singapore, as well as in Hong Kong and Macau.
This has enabled devices like currency exchange machines, claw machines, capsule toy machines, washing machines, and massage chairs to quickly achieve internet connectivity and intelligent management.
