HONG KONG, Sept. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Tencent Cloud, the cloud business of global technology company Tencent, today announced its support in the optimization and upgrade of “iAM Smart”, Hong Kong’s one-stop personalized digital services platform, through Tencent Cloud Super App as a Service (TCSAS) solution. This upgrade accelerates the digitalization of public services, offering citizens with a more efficient and convenient mobile services experience.
Tencent Cloud today announced its support in the optimization and upgrade of “iAM Smart”, Hong Kong‘s one-stop personalized digital services platform, through Tencent Cloud Super App as a Service (TCSAS) solution.
“iAM Smart” is a one-stop digital services platform launched by the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government (HKSAR). It integrates services from various government departments, public and private organizations, including eTAX, SmartPLAY, eMPF, and application for the International Driving Permit. As of August 2025, the platform has accumulated over 3.6 million registered users, with services covering taxation, healthcare, education, and transportation.
TCSAS integrates Tencent’s expertise in mini program development, testing, deployment, operation, and container technology. Through TCSAS, “iAM Smart” can build a mini-program matrix within the app, reducing the need to switch between multiple interfaces. Citizens can access services from various government departments, public and private organizations through a single, unified interface, improving overall service efficiency and achieving the goal of “single portal for online government services”.
Furthermore, this upgrade incorporates several security and quality assurance capabilities from Tencent Cloud TianYu, Tencent WeTest, and other products. It enables functions such as business risk control and data protection to ensure data security and transaction reliability throughout the service process, at the same time relying on Tencent Cloud’s powerful cloud infrastructure to support the system’s smooth deployment and operation.
Poshu Yeung, Senior Vice President, Tencent Cloud International, said, “Tencent Cloud is honored to be part of the upgrade and optimization project of ‘iAM Smart.’ We are committed to leveraging our technological capabilities to support public services and accelerate Hong Kong’s digital development.”
