VietQR is everywhere, but access is not automatic
Foreigners see VietQR at cafes, landlords, clinics, shops, and in chat invoices. The confusing part is that seeing a QR code does not mean your foreign card or foreign wallet can pay it directly.
Prepare the route before the counter
If your money starts in crypto, the practical question is simple: how do you turn wallet liquidity into the local QR behavior the merchant expects?
