The super-app story. In this report we take an in-depth look at the development of super apps in Asia, why the unique
environment in China favored these apps, and the potential contenders in Brazil.

China and the Unique Environment for Super-App Development

A Unique (and Almost Irreplicable) Combination of Factors


Key Factors in China’s Head Start Into Super Apps

 Unique privacy concepts. Chinese institutions have been monitoring the population’s web traffic almost since the beginning of the internet. As a result,
Chinese consumers have an idea of privacy that differs from most other countries. We believe that this has allowed super apps like WeChat to gather a
great deal of information on people’s lives without them being concerned about it.

 Mobile-first internet consumer. With the rapid increase in mobile penetration and internet usage in China, many consumers skipped the PC era entirely
and were more prone to getting as many tasks as possible done through their mobile phones. This favored the development of WeChat in China, and its
mini-program platform through which consumers can access different verticals and services with only one app.

 Government as a sponsor. The Chinese population’s internet traffic and consumption habits have been institutionally monitored, and we believe that
China may not be the best concentrating this data in the hands of a few players would make access to information much easier. Additionally, the restriction on some potential
international competitors (Facebook and Google, for example) from doing business in the country facilitated the establishment of oligopolies in several
example due to the industry segments and created a favorable environment for the development of super apps.

unique combination of  Cash-dominated payment market. In 2010, most payments in China were made in cash. However, with increasing smartphone penetration and apps
that offer both payment and everyday services (such as cab-hailing), mobile payment methods have gained momentum as the preferred payment
factors that favor the method of Chinese consumers. This favored the development of super-app functions and played a key role in generating traffic and recurrence within
the WeChat platform.

apps.  China may not be the best example for the development of super apps in Brazil. The combination of unique privacy concepts, mobile-first internet
consumers, pro-disruption and super-app-sponsoring government, and cash-dominated payment market in China is one of a kind. That said, China and
WeChat may not be the best example when trying to determine the landscape for the development of new super apps in Brazil.

 India in the spotlight of the super-app revolution. India stands out as a country with the potential to develop super apps, especially because the
concept of privacy of its population is very similar to that of Chinese consumers, and mobile internet usage is even higher than in China. While the super-
app revolution in India is incipient, the trend is surely one to watch as the country moves into its next chapter of internet usage.

China and the Unique Environment for Super-App Development

An In-Depth Look at the Business Ecosystem in China


 China: a case study for the development of super apps in other regions. We believe that understanding the unique environment for the development of super apps in China could help determine why
other apps in Asia (such as Grab, Go-Jek and Meituan-Dianping, for example) could find it more challenging to develop a super app than WeChat did.
 Factors that contributed to the development of super apps in China. We attribute the successful transition of WeChat to a super app to several factors related to the business, consumer and regulatory
environment in China. Of these factors, which are not common in many Western regions (including Brazil), we chose four to discuss in detail in this section of the report: i) unique privacy concepts; ii)
mobile-first internet consumers; iii) government as a sponsor of super-app development; and iv) a cash-dominated payment market.

China and the Unique Environment for Super-App Development

An In-Depth Look at the Business Ecosystem in China

Mobile-First* Internet Consumer


 The development of China’s mobile ecosystem cannot be overlooked when determining the reasons that super apps have thrived in the country. Since 2009, with the launch of the iPhone,
smartphones have gained increasing market share in internet usage over desktops worldwide (until 2017) – and China is no exception. The speed at which it happened, however, was significantly different
from other countries. From 2014 to 2016, China’s market share of mobile internet usage grew at an incomparable speed, surpassing 50% at the end of 2016, aided by the decline in the price of these
devices.
 The rapid increase in mobile-phone market share in 2016 is one of the main reasons that China became one of the world’s first successful “mobile-first” countries. With cheaper, easier access to
smartphones, consumers were more inclined to get as many operations as possible done through their phones, as supported by an analysis of m-commerce (mobile online) retail sales in the country.
Notwithstanding the growth in e-commerce sales, from 11% of total retail sales in 2014 to 20% in 2017, m-commerce went from representing 9.0% of the e-commerce market in 1Q13 to 64.8% in 4Q15,
showing strong market-share gains from computer e-commerce sales in the period.
 The mobile-first mentality, which is clearly evidenced in m-commerce sales growth, was a determining factor in the success of super apps. This mentality allowed applications to easily develop other
functions for their platforms, making it easier for consumers (who already preferred their phones to their computers) to solve more of their problems in one place.

China and the Unique Environment for Super-App Development

An In-Depth Look at the Business Ecosystem in China

Government as a Sponsor Companies Restricted in China and Their Chinese Substitutes

 The Chinese government has also played an important role in the development of super apps
through a number of measures. We believe that the main factors behind the government’s
“sponsorship” of the development of super apps are: *
 i) Internet regulation. Since 1997, with the creation of the Great Firewall of China, Chinese
authorities have enjoyed great ability to monitor citizens’ internet usage. The government has also
imposed restrictions on a number of internet companies (such as Google, Facebook and YouTube),
limiting the competition for local players.
 ii) Data control. To improve institutional internet surveillance, it makes sense to have only a
handful of players dealing with internet traffic. This is precisely what happened in China. **
 iii) Pro-disruption. Despite the importance of surveillance, China’s policies supported the
development of fintechs in the country by not imposing strict regulation on these companies
initially. Case in point, the government allowed apps to make money transfers by accessing their
users’ bank accounts, for example. This lack of regulation was vital in the development of the
mobile banking system in China and, therefore, in the creation of super apps.

Cash-Dominated Payment Market

 China’s payment market was dominated by cash payments. In 2010, cash transactions made up 61% of the total payment value in China’s retail consumption market (by 2018, this number was at 37% in
Brazil, for example). However, this figure has been on a consistent downtrend since then, somewhat due to the increasing acceptance and use of credit and debit cards, but mostly due to mobile payments
and the super-app phenomena.
 Skipping credit cards: the friction issue. All bank accounts in China are tied to a debit card, which made debit card penetration rather high throughout the country. Credit cards, on the other hand, had a
very limited penetration in the country, at only 8% in 2011. Penetration aside, the use of both credit and debit cards was significantly lower than cash, accounting for 35% of payments in 2010. Faster and
easier than cash and cards, mobile payments then became a viable and frictionless option, making it widespread in China before credit cards had a chance to gain traction.
 Straight into mobile payments. By plugging instant, free payments into their platforms, super apps reduced users’ need to carry money and avoided all the annoying steps required by credit cards.
Moreover, super apps brought offline transactions into the digital world, solving the day-to-day stress that is mostly related to offline issues, like standing in line.
 Digital payments also solve day-to-day issues. Actions that once required time and effort – such as going to the supermarket, cooking or hailing a cab – can now all be done through apps. Not only did
digital payments solve payment frictions – due to their speed relative to cash and credit cards – but the apps supporting this form of payment resolved real-life issues.

The Super-App Story and Asian Contenders


The Super-App Story: Successful Cases in Asia as a Reference for Potential Contenders in Brazil
 Super-app story in Asia: successful case studies and Brazilian contenders. Following our report The Chinese Digital Experience: The Story Behind the Super Apps, published on March 21, we present other
successful super-app case studies in Asia and delve deeper into the potential contenders emerging in Brazil (Rappi, iFood, and Mercado Libre, for example). The super-app story surged in Asia, with WeChat
in China. Following the WeChat experience, Asia has seen new super-app candidates pop up, which we discuss in this section of the report.
 Super app: one app to rule them all. To quote Blackberry founder Mike Lazaridis, “Super Apps represent a new class of mobile applications that make you wonder how you ever lived without them, it is a
closed ecosystem of many apps that people would use every day.” The super app’s operational system generally functions at the intersection of logistics/local delivery, e-commerce, payments and social
media. Classification as a super app requires at least two of these functions under operation. Super apps have a large, high-frequency user base.

The Super-App Path: Starting as a Single Service and Moving to a Multi-Task Platform
 The Asian super-app journey: a clear path through different verticals. Super apps in Asia were born as single-service apps that added services as they grew their user base. With payment services being a
must in the Super-App platform (to gather data and unlock other customer services), contenders in Asia started providing services to customers across the different verticals to grow their user base along
the way. Apart from WeChat and Alipay, detailed in our previous report (The Chinese Digital Experience: The Story Behind the Super Apps), the service verticals and contenders discussed in this section are:
i) Ride-Hailing (Grab and Go-Jek); and ii) Food-Delivery (Meituan-Dianping and Ele.me).

Grab and Go-Jek: The Super App Race in Southeast Asia


The Ride-Hailing Race and Super-App Contenders in Southeast Asia
 Grab and Go-Jek: initially established as mobile-transportation solutions. With growing smartphone penetration and worsening traffic jams, Grab and Go-Jek were initially established to provide an
option to the oversaturated public transportation in Malaysia and Indonesia, respectively, where taxis and motorbikes (ojeks) were considered unsafe, unreliable and usually unavailable during peak traffic
hours. Grab and Go-Jek currently operate in eight and four countries, respectively, including Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand and Philippines.
 The ride-hailing race: Grab as the front-runner, at least for now. Grab and Go-Jek have stayed out of each other’s lane for some time, but they have entered a collision course as their business models and
target market converge. In many of the cities in which they operate, Grab and Go-Jek have been engaged in a no-holds-barred price war, slashing fees for car rides, motorcycle trips and other services. Grab
seems to be the front-runner because it operates in more markets than Go-Jek and has e-payment licenses in Southeast Asia’s six largest markets (Go-Jek offers these services only in Indonesia and
Philippines). With its acquisition of Uber, Grab has the ride-hailing leading market share in Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Vietnam. In Indonesia, Grab has a market share of 62% in the ride-hailing
business.
 From ride-hailing to super app: Grab and Go-Jek are the new super-app contenders. With exponential user-base growth in the ride-hailing segment, through the addition of new services over time (Grab
Car and Go-Car, for example) and acquisitions (Grab merged with Uber’s operation in Southeast Asia in 2018), Grab and Go-Jek have both gradually evolved into apps that offer other services centered
around payments and are now considered Asia’s new super-app contenders. This also explains the companies’ growing funding needs, with Didi Chuxing and Tencent as investors.

Ride-Hailing Frequency in Southeast Asia: Way Above Global Peers


 Ride-hailing is a high-frequency service in Southeast Asia: a key factor for user-base growth. Southeast Asian countries have one of the highest global
ride-hailing user penetrations, which helps to explain the success of Grab and Go-Jek. Grab recently moved its headquarters to Singapore (the highest
ride-hailing user penetration in the world), where the company has been battling directly with Go-Jek. Ride-hailing is also a high-frequency service in the Daily Avg.

Ride-
Far Beyond Ride-Hailing: Super-App Services and Data Generated Could Prove More Profitable Hailing
 Not just a ride-hailing battle: the super-app value proposition. Grab’s and Go-Jek’s aspirations of going far beyond the ride-hailing business and Bike
transforming their apps into a multi-service vehicle also has an important underlying reason. Many believe that super-app services and the data Sharing
generated through them will be more stable, more profitable and easier to scale than revenues from ride-hailing – where profits have been elusive
despite exponential growth (Uber’s financial performance, for example). In addition to ride-hailing, Grab and Go-Jek now provide a wide array of services Food
that include Mobile Finance (e-wallet and loans), Mobile Groceries (food and grocery delivery) and Mobile Miscellany (on-demand services). Delivery

Grab and Go-Jek: The Super-App Race in Southeast Asia


E-Wallets as a Key Strategic Pillar for Grab and Go-Jek
 Southeast Asia: an underbanked region and an opportunity for e-wallets. Southeast Asia is a historically underbanked region, where only 47% of adults have a bank account and only one-third of its
small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have access to loans or credit lines. Companies like Grab and Go-Jek have therefore been expanding beyond ride-hailing to offer financial services to their
customers via e-wallets – by building new products, acquiring existing fintechs and forging relationships with new fintech partners.
 Grab’s and Go-Jek’s e-wallets have been reducing payment-related friction: a strategy to potentially boost user frequency. In 2016, both Grab and Go-Jek ventured into financial technology with the
launch of GrabPay and Go-Pay, respectively. The convenience of using an e-wallet to pay and tip drivers has been reducing payment-related friction in the region, and could therefore potentially boost
user frequency for both companies. As a matter of fact, most mobile-wallet services require bank or credit cards to add funds. Grab, for example, has been overcoming this problem by using its drivers as
collection points for users to purchase mobile-wallet credits. According to Go-Jek, roughly 50% of its 100 million monthly transactions are processed through Go-Pay.
 E-wallets have also played a key role in Grab’s and Go-Jek’s service expansion, with some banks offering products via these super-app contenders. We believe that e-wallets also contributed to the
expansion of services and new products offered through Grab’s and Go-Jek’s apps because payment solutions usually generate a lot of data on transactions and consumer behavior. Case in point, some
banks have already begun to benefit from partnerships with super apps like Grab and Go-Jek. Bank CIMB Niaga has acquired 940,000 new customers (most of whom were previously underbanked) by
opening new accounts for Grab and Go-Jek and it processes two million transactions per month from the drivers. Other banks, such as Bank Tabungan Negara, have been offering mortgage loans through
the Go-Jek app.

Shifting Gears: Meituan-Dianping and Ele.me – The Food-Delivery Battle in China


O2O Food-Delivery Platforms in China: Only One Player Currently Stands Out as a Potential Super App
 Meituan-Dianping: the O2O food-delivery giant in China. Meituan-Dianping is one of the most representative online-to-offline food-delivery platforms in China, with more than 12 million daily orders. Meituan was
founded in 2010 by Xing Wang (also founder of Xiaonei, the Chinese Facebook) as a platform for retail and online group buying. It then expanded to other services via a merger with Dianping (food-review app similar to
Yelp in the U.S.) and the acquisition of Mobike (bike-sharing). It currently offers a wide array of services that include hotel booking, car-hailing and on-demand grocery delivery. The company has Tencent as one of its
main shareholders and, after its IPO in Hong Kong in September 2018 (valued at USD 51 billion), it added 340 million users and 4.7 million merchants to its platform.
 Ele.me: the O2O Chinese food-delivery contender. Ele.me (which means “Are you hungry?” in Mandarin) is the second largest online-to-offline food-delivery platform in China, with more than nine million daily orders.
The company was founded in 2008 by Mark Zhang and Jack Kang as a food-delivery service in Shanghai, and has remained exclusively in the food-delivery segment since then. Ele.me acquired Baidu Waimai (third-
largest food-delivery player in China) in 2017 to gain share, bulk up its consumer data and tie the battle with Meituan-Dianping. The company is backed by Alibaba, China’s tech giant, which acquired control of Ele.me in
2018 for an implied valuation of USD 9.5 billion, following its investment of USD 1.5 billion via Ant Financial in 2016.
 Super-app contenders: Meituan-Dianping is the main candidate at this point. We believe that Meituan-Dianping is currently the main candidate for super-app status at this point, given the rapid expansion of its
platform to other services, while Ele.me has been exclusively concentrated in the food-delivery business. We nonetheless note that neither company has expressed the intention to become a super app, focusing instead
on dominance of the food-delivery segment, which is a key pillar of Tencent’s and Alibaba’s strategy to combine online and offline shopping.

Meituan-Dianping and Ele.me: The Food-Delivery Battle in China


Tencent vs. Alibaba: From Mobile Payments to Food Delivery
 Big-Tech Conflict in the Food-Delivery Business: Tencent vs. Alibaba. The battle between Meituan-Dianping and Ele.me underscores the underlying conflict between Tencent and Alibaba. China’s two
most valuable tech companies have risen to the top in different ways – Tencent rules China’s social media and entertainment world, while Alibaba dominates the country’s e-commerce – but they have
increasingly crossed paths over the past few years. Meituan-Dianping is the market leader, with a 59% share, and has been well-funded through several equity offerings and an IPO by Tencent. However,
Ele.me’s increasing funding rounds via Alibaba have been intensifying competition in the segment, and Ele.me has been trying to attract customers and gain market share via discounts.

Not Just Food Delivery: A Larger Plan Behind China’s O2O Giants
 O2O food delivery: key to boosting payments and the new retail strategy. Tencent’s and Alibaba’s focus on demand services, or online-to-offline (O2O), also depends on their intention to grow payment
services (WeChat Pay and Alipay, respectively), given that food delivery is a high-frequency business. As a matter of fact, Ele.me’s delivery platform currently uses Alipay, the e-wallet developed by
Alibaba affiliate Ant Financial, as its default payment method. More importantly, the food-delivery platforms are meant to be a cornerstone for Tencent’s and Alibaba’s new retail strategies. Meituan-
Dianping and Ele.me have been renovating China’s retail sector by analyzing customer data more efficiently and integrating online and offline shopping (O2O). With their large delivery teams, which are
already delivering meal orders in 30 minutes or less, both can support Tencent’s and Alibaba’s logistics operations with the long-term goal of delivering any item to customers’ homes within 30 minutes.

The Super-App Race in Brazil: Market Potential and Contenders

Who Are the Key Contenders in the Most Promising Verticals for Super Apps?
 Players focused on developing a super app from the start are still a minority. Rappi is the only current example of this, after Glovo left the country a few months ago due to a lack of resources to grow. It
therefore seems that when venture capital funds pick an asset in Brazil, they are not guessing which player will lead the super-app race, but creating them. Most of Rappi’s competitors come from other
verticals, and they are racing to acquire customers and to invest a lot of growth capital.

 Local players from specific verticals have the advantage of a loyal customer base and a core area of expertise. Marketplace, ride-hailing and even food-delivery players are currently shifting their
businesses to include other services on their platform and to increase consumer engagement as they grow the top line through cross-selling. Uber is the best global example of such a move; Uber Eats
already ranks second in the U.S. food-delivery market, only three years after launching.

 International players pose a real threat to local players, given their developed global expertise, deep pockets and potential local and frequent-user base. Those that best fit this description are Facebook
and Uber. Although Amazon has not developed a substantial user base yet, recent SimilarWeb data suggest that a sizeable growth rate and expertise developed abroad could help to build a key, local
competitive advantage (as discussed on page 5).

The Unit Economics of Ride-Hailing vs Food-Delivery: Uber’s Case Study
Although food delivery charges a take-rate for all deliveries, it converts less GMV into revenues due to the cost of delivery relative to its delivery fees.
 Excess driver incentives are any amount paid to a driver that exceeds the revenue earned on any given trip (USD 2 in the example below). This expense increased by about USD 300
million in 2018, driven by the growth of Uber Eats, where drivers’ earnings exceed the delivery fees. In 1Q19 alone, food delivery converted 12.5% from GMV to adjusted gross revenues, vs.
22.5% for ride-hailing. In short, the take-rate charged for products sold (~25%) did not make up for the higher delivery costs relative to fees.
 However, if competition in the ride-hailing business increases, excess incentives in this vertical could become more frequent and further limit GMV conversion into adjusted net revenues.

Example of Uber’s Unit Economics for Both Businesses Suggests That Fewer Driver Incentives Could Help Uber Eats Convert More GMV into Revenues
