Kasikornbank partners with AIS to support SME businesses with digital services and financial solutions

Kasikornbank and AIS are combining their digital infrastructure and financial capabilities to create a new growth engine for SME businesses seeking access to the digital economy. According to Boonterb Jeeraphut, Senior Vice President at Kasikornbank, SMEs are vital to Thailand's economic system but face mounting challenges from economic deceleration, increased costs, and rapid technology changes. The bank remains committed to supporting entrepreneurs through comprehensive financial solutions and knowledge development that enable seamless business transactions and efficient financial planning.

The collaboration aims to strengthen the business ecosystem by providing entrepreneurs with integrated access to technology, infrastructure, and financial services without barriers. Puphae Akavipat, Corporate Customer Group Head at AIS, emphasized that digital infrastructure is critical for enhancing the competitiveness of Thai SMEs, especially as businesses transition from physical storefronts to full-scale online and digital platform operations.

As part of the initiative launching May 1 through July 31, 2026, K SHOP and K BIZ customers, as well as new customers, will receive special rates on AIS mobile packages and AIS 3BB Fibre broadband, starting at 899 baht monthly. Additional offerings include premium lucky business numbers, high-speed FibreLAN internet solutions, and bundled packages designed to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency for SMEs. Both organizations aim to provide ongoing support to help SME entrepreneurs operate more flexibly and competitively in the digital economy.
