Southeast Asia’s superapp battle, explained

Eleven
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
nations
</a>
make up Southeast Asia (SEA): Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Timor-Leste, Thailand, and (this writer’s country of heritage) Vietnam!
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
While this market is not nearly as big as China or India, its relatively young combined population of 650m+ people is nothing to sneeze at.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
And this week, 2 of SEA’s biggest ride hailing and delivery apps -- Grab and Gojek -- made big plays to win the prize.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 17px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 8px;">
<strong>
The startups are aping the playbook of WeChat
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
The Chinese superapp basically combines DoorDash, Uber, Paypal, Cash App, WhatsApp, and Twitter all into one platform.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
As many developing nations lack fully developed services (e.g., communications, finance, transportation) there is white space for a single app to be a one-stop shop.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Take Grab: In 2018, it ended a bitter ride-hailing feud with Uber (now, a minority owner in the startup) and launched a fintech business. Yesterday, that fintech unit raised
<strong>
$300m
</strong>
to expand its payments, loans, investments, and insurance products, according to
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
<em>
The Information

.
</p>
<h4 style="font-size: 17px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 8px;">
<strong>
Grab was in talks to merge with Indonesia-based GoJek…
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
… but the deal ultimately fell through, partially around antitrust concerns of combining the region’s 2 biggest ride hailers.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
GoJek is now in
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
merger
</a>
talks with Indonesia’s top ecommerce firm, Tokopedia, per
<em>
Nikkei Asia
</em>
. The combined entity would be valued at
<strong>
$17B+
</strong>
, more than Grab’s
<strong>
$14B+
</strong>
.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
While both Grab and GoJek operate across the region, Indonesia has the largest population (~268m) in SEA and a GoJek-Tokopedia merger could secure that prize.

Grab and GoJek are going after the biggest fish in the pond

</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
SEA’s superapp leader is
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
Sea Limited
</a>
, a $100B+ consumer internet beast that combines games, ecommerce, and finance.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
The region’s only publicly listed superapp, Singapore-based Sea, saw its valuation grow more than
<strong>
4x
</strong>
in 2020, giving it a source of cheap capital. To compete, Grab and GoJek will likely have to go public.

Nandini Jami blew our collective minds when she
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
resurfaced
</a>
this story over the weekend.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
In 2017, her internet watchdog organization Sleeping Giants was nipping at Uber’s heels over ads the rideshare company placed on Breitbart.

<strong>
Uber responded by cutting ~$15m worth of ads
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Surprisingly, the rideshare leader saw no
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
significant
</a>
drop in user acquisition.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
On closer inspection, Uber exec Kevin Frisch found all sorts of problems with their ad partners, like:
</p>
<ul style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 12px;">
<li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>
Impossible numbers
</strong>
: The number of daily ad clicks reported by some networks were higher than their total active users.
</li>
<li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>
Slimy practices
</strong>
like spying on users’ mobile app store usage, then claiming credit for organic sign-ups.
</li>
</ul>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
In the end, Uber cut ⅔ of their ~$150m ad budget -- with no negative effects -- and launched the first major

“What if [insert Big Tech firm] competes against us?” It’s a question every startup asks itself.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
There’s the flip side too, though: What if a Big Tech firm becomes your startup’s biggest customer?

<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
This is exactly the case for

Yubico
</a>
, the hardware maker of the popular
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
security dongle called Yubikey.

<h4 style="font-size: 17px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-top: 8px;">
<strong>
Yubico was founded in 2007 in Sweden…
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
… and for years was an “obscure security firm” with only 5 full-time employees, according to
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
<em>
The Information

</a>
.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
The company was trying to solve a problem with the ubiquitous two-factor authentication (2FA) process:
</p>
<ol style="font-size: 15px;">
<li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>
First factor:
</strong>
username + password
</li>
<li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
<strong>
Second factor:
</strong>
one-time password via text, email, or authenticator
</li>
</ol>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
There are actually a number of
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #d62829; color: #d62829; text-decoration: none;">
ways
</a>
to bypass 2FA, from phishing to intercepting tokens. Yubikey partially solves the problem by requiring a user to plug its dongle into a USB port as another layer of security.
</p>

While the ~$45 dongle is not a silver bullet (it could not have prevented the

</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
Today, 9 out of 10 of the biggest tech companies as well as world leaders (e.g., Angela Merkel) use Yubikey. Banks have rolled them out to high net-worth individuals (

) and it could be coming to your office next.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
With 300 employees now, Yubico expects revenue to rise 70% this year (from $200m in 2020) and may be prepping another key startup question: “When’s the IPO?”
