Kasikornbank has teamed up with Central Department Store to bring the entire store to K+ Market on K PLUS, curating renowned brand products that elevate the premium shopping experience. Customers can confidently choose from quality products from a trusted department store, enjoying a seamless online shopping experience with convenient payment options, including cash from their K PLUS account or using K Point rewards as cash. Recently, customers can also use The 1 points to purchase items on K+ Market at great value.

Mr. Patchar Somalapha, Managing Director of Kasikornbank, stated that the bank is committed to developing K+ Market on K PLUS into an online platform that meets all lifestyle needs for online shopping. The K+ Market service offers a selection of genuine, licensed products of high quality across various categories, including food and beverage coupons, cosmetics, IT equipment, household items, and other lifestyle products. Currently, K+ Market features over 50,000 items and serves up to 4 million customers monthly. This collaboration with Central Department Store not only reinforces the potential of the K+ Market platform with a wide range of quality products but also addresses every definition of premium online shopping, emphasizing ease and security in payment options, allowing customers to pay with cash in their K PLUS account, use K Point rewards, or redeem The 1 points as cash.

Furthermore, the bank believes that this collaboration with Central Department Store will provide over 16.5 million K PLUS users, the leading mobile banking service in Thailand, with convenient access to quality shopping options and increased opportunities to use K Point and The 1 rewards instead of cash, especially as the year-end approaches, marking the start of a significant shopping season for Thai consumers.

Mr. Olivier Brong, CEO of Central Retail Group, stated, “Central Department Store has never stopped evolving in every dimension, with the goal of creating the highest happiness and satisfaction for our valued customers. This has earned Central Department Store the trust and loyalty of Thai customers, making it the number one retail business in the country. Today, we are delighted to partner with a strong ally like Kasikornbank to deliver products, services, and exclusive privileges available only at Central Department Store, allowing Kasikornbank customers to experience the best and most comprehensive shopping experience by bringing Central Department Store to K+ Market on K PLUS. When customers shop, they will enjoy exclusive premium products from leading brands, both local and international, guaranteed to be 100% authentic, with a wide variety available in every category, making it convenient and easy to meet every lifestyle need.

This collaboration also meets the demand of customers looking for premium gifts during the upcoming festive season throughout the high season, whether for personal gifts or to share good feelings with loved ones, ensuring happiness in every shopping experience. Additionally, it presents a great opportunity for customers with high reward points, as they can use K Point rewards as cash, and recently, they can also use The 1 points to purchase items on K+ Market at great value. This partnership is another key aspect of doing business in this era, allowing both parties to grow together, enhance each other's capabilities, and enable Central Department Store to expand its customer base while creating sustainable business opportunities.”
