They basically skipped cards and moved from cash to app transfers. QR code is a natural extension of the app to make contactless payments accessible.
You also don't need a payment terminal. Even adoption of card payment in the West has never been fully ubiquitous (though it's pretty close now) because of the need for a payment terminal.
