What 2C2P does

2C2P is a Singapore-headquartered payment orchestration platform serving enterprises and SMEs across Southeast Asia, founded in 2003 and operating as a subsidiary of Ant International's Antom division since late 2025. The company's core product, PACO, is a cloud-native orchestration platform running on AWS infrastructure that connects over 400 payment methods (cards, digital wallets, QR, BNPL, bank transfers, and over-the-counter cash at 600,000+ Asia locations) and 150+ currencies through a single API, allowing merchants to route transactions across multiple acquirers for cost optimisation and high availability. Vertical-specialised modules include the Airline Controller (ALC) for aviation payments with IATA, Amadeus, and Sabre integrations; Qwik for social commerce payment links; Card and Wallet Issuing; SoftPOS for tap-to-phone acceptance on Android; Payout & Remittance; Multi-Currency Pricing; and Installment Payment Plans.

2C2P monetises primarily through per-transaction fees on payment processing and payout volumes across its six core SEA markets (Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam) plus Hong Kong, with additional revenue from card/wallet issuance and installment plans. The customer base spans airlines (25+ including AirAsia, Malaysia Airlines, Cebu Pacific, TransNusa, Vietnam Airlines), online marketplaces (Lazada), hospitality (Capella, YOTEL, Minor/Anantara, ONYX, Changi), retail and technology (Lenovo, USANA), insurance (MSIG, Aviva, JA Assure), logistics (Thailand Post), F&B (StoreHub), and emerging verticals such as EV charging (LUMI). Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales with API-first self-service developer onboarding, complemented by 30+ bank and financial-institution channel partnerships and licensed local providers (e.g., M-PAY in Vietnam).

The platform is differentiated by a regulatory footprint (MPI licence from MAS in Singapore; licensed local entities across SEA), a deep certification stack (PCI DSS Level 1, PCI 3DS, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, SOC 2 Type 2, CSA STAR Level 2), and AI-augmented capabilities including the SHIELD risk engine (95% precision), Antom Copilot for chargeback and integration automation, and the Falcon AI model for FX hedging optimisation. As of late 2025, under a new CEO Designate (Worachat Luxkanalode), 2C2P is executing a $60M growth strategy to expand beyond its enterprise base into regional SMEs, while continuing to deepen its airline, marketplace, and cross-border payment capabilities under the "2C2P by Antom" brand.

Emerging players

• Airwallex: Cross-border payments and treasury platform with strong APAC roots. Comparable to 2C2P's payout/remittance and multi-currency offerings for cross-border merchants.
• MultiSafepay: European payment service provider now owned by Ant International alongside 2C2P. Operates a comparable payment-gateway and APM orchestration model in Europe — a sibling peer under the same parent.
• HitPay: Singapore-based omnichannel payment platform focused on SMEs across SEA — directly comparable to 2C2P's new SME-focused softPOS and EPOS360 push.

Direct peers

• Xendit: Leading Southeast Asia-focused payment gateway serving Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam and other SEA markets. Closest direct competitor for 2C2P's regional enterprise and digital-wallet coverage.
• Stripe: Global payment gateway and orchestration platform offering API-first merchant acceptance. Directly comparable to 2C2P's PACO platform and a key competitive threat as Stripe expands deeper into APAC.
• DOKU: Indonesian payment gateway and fintech with deep local acquiring and APM coverage. Now partnered with Antom/2C2P, but historically a direct competitor for Indonesian merchant volume.
• Adyen: Global unified payments processor serving enterprise merchants with multi-acquirer orchestration, similar to 2C2P's PACO. Competes for the same airlines, marketplaces, and large retailers in APAC.

Broad incumbents

• Worldline: European-headquartered payment processor with a global merchant services business. Comparable as a broad-incumbent acquiring/processing peer, particularly for airlines and large retailers.
• Checkout.com: Global enterprise-focused payment processor with growing APAC presence. Comparable in scale, enterprise customer profile, and orchestration capabilities to 2C2P's PACO.
• GrabPay (Grab Financial Group): SEA super-app wallet and merchant payment service. Comparable to 2C2P's wallet-acceptance and merchant solutions; represents both a distribution partner (GrabPay integration) and a disintermediation risk.
