NTT DATA Payment Services Launches ADAPTIS Soundbox in First Regional Rollout for SMEs Across Southeast Asia

KUALA LUMPUR, 30 July 2025 – NTT DATA Payment Services today launched the ADAPTIS Soundbox, a compact, voice-enabled, all-in-one payment device designed to support small and medium businesses, busy retailers, and F&B outlets across Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. 

As the first regional rollout of its kind in Southeast Asia, the ADAPTIS Soundbox allows merchants to accept payments via QR codes, contactless cards, and e-Wallets, particularly during peak hours where fast and reliable payment confirmation is crucial. A clear, audible sound alert confirms every successful transaction in real time, helping merchants serve customers efficiently without needing to check screens or printed receipts, while providing added assurance that payments are securely received and not misdirected to another QR code or account.


Built with simplicity in mind, the Soundbox is a plug-and-play solution with no technical setup required. It is offered with no rental, no minimum transaction commitment, and is available at an introductory one-time payment, making it an accessible option for merchants looking to digitise quickly. For Malaysian merchants, devices can be delivered within one working day of registration.

While the device includes a QR-based e-Receipt feature, helping businesses reduce paper usage and support sustainability efforts, its core advantage lies in improving transaction visibility and speed. Merchants can also monitor transactions in real time through an online dashboard, streamlining daily reconciliation.

“As an established and trusted payment services provider with decades of experience, we are proud to introduce a solution that truly supports the needs of growing businesses across Southeast Asia,” said Frances Choo, Group Head Product & Partnerships at NTT DATA Payment Services. “The ADAPTIS Soundbox reflects our commitment to offering practical, user-friendly tools that enhance merchant efficiency, from fast checkouts and instant payment alerts to paperless operations.”

Key benefits of the ADAPTIS Soundbox include:

  • Accepts QR, credit/debit card, and e-Wallet payments
  • Audible alerts on successful transactions
  • Real-time transaction tracking for merchants
  • e-Receipt available via QR code scan
  • Compact and durable for high-volume retail environments
The ADAPTIS Soundbox joins the ADAPTIS In-Store suite of physical payment services already offered by NTT DATA Payment Services. These include:
  • Vending Payment Solutions – Ready-to-integrate technology for vending machines and self-service kiosks
