About the Opportunity: Whether you are backpacking 🎒through Vietnam, island-hopping in the Philippines, or living that slow-travel life in Thailand, you know the daily routine: grabbing street food, bargaining at local markets, and renting scooters. You also know the exact moment the fun stops—when you run out of cash, can't find an ATM 🏧, or get hit with massive withdrawal fees.
We are building PayMoji, an app that lets travelers ditch the bulky wallets and pay like a local using native QR codes across Southeast Asia 🌏. To make sure it works seamlessly in the real world, we need eyes and ears on the ground 👀👂. We are looking for observant, street-savvy travelers to help us map out exactly how people spend money in the cities you are already exploring 🗺️.
We are looking to work with people in Vietnam and the Philippines but will open soon to Thailand 🇹🇭and Cambodia 🇰🇭. Feel free to reach out to us in advance!
What You Will Do
Hit the Streets: Go about your normal day, visit cafes ☕, night markets, and local vendors and document the payment experience.
Test in the Wild: Use PayMoji to scan local QR codes where you eat, shop, and travel, reporting back on how smoothly (or not) the transaction goes 📲.
Map the Market: Help us understand the local cash-versus-digital dynamics. Which vendors accept QR? Where is cash still king? 👑 What are the biggest physical barriers to paying digitally in your current city?
Gather On-the-Ground Intel: Observe and document how local merchants react to foreign travelers using local digital payment methods 🤝.
Who We Are Looking For
The Authentic Traveler: You must have a true understanding of being a traveler or digital nomad. We need you to empathize with our users and possess a deep customer understanding, because you live this reality every day 🌅.
Naturally Curious: You enjoy interacting with locals 🧐, asking questions, and noticing the small details about how a city functions.
Self-Motivated: 🚀 You can manage a simple research brief independently and provide clear, honest feedback from the road.
Why Collaborate With Us
💰Earn While Exploring: This is a project-based, freelance role. You do not need to sit at a desk; your "office" is the market, the cafe, or the hostel.
🧘♂️No Disruption to Your Lifestyle: Complete your tasks while doing the things you were already planning to do today.
🚪Open Possibilities: As PayMoji grows across Southeast Asia, delivering great on-the-ground insights can easily lead to more project opportunities or ongoing collaboration.
