E-payment platform for more hassle-free business transactions soon

An electronic payment platform is being developed for ease of doing business transactions, President Dr Irfaan Ali revealed on Saturday. He was delivering remarks at the sod-turning ceremony for the new Campbellville Polyclinic.

“We are working now on the implementation of the electronic payment platform, a mobile payment platform where you can be in the one of the deepest mining companies and you can make a payment for a part in Georgetown on your mobile phone,” President Ali announced.

He further elaborated that users will able be able to make bill payments on the platform and that government ministries and agencies will also be linked for payment of services. He did not provide further details on when the platform will be rolled out.

“This payment platform would take away a lot of the stress and the productive time you lose to transact business,” President Ali said.
