“The pandemic has shown us the importance of increased access to safe and hassle-free transactions, with digital and contactless payments exponentially rising over the past two years. Just this year, our customers have already made close to 15 million transactions with about Php30 billion in value, and we expect this number to grow,”
said Dan Ibarra, Chief Executive Officer of BTI Payments.
“We want to help with the campaign to enable the unbanked and underserved. Our channel simplifies the way users can gain access to their finances. That’s why we’re very happy to be partnering up with one of the largest mall operators in the nation to provide financial services for more of our customers.”
Pay&Go kiosks are set to provide numerous benefits to individuals and businesses alike. BTI Payments is partnered with many of the country’s biggest brands, allowing users to have a one-stop shop for all their payment needs. E-money wallets under GCash, Maya, and ShopeePay can be topped up, drivers can purchase reload PINs for Grab, while prepaid airtime can be purchased for Globe, Smart, Sun, and Dito. Bills payment will also be a breeze, with major utility, transport, and loan providers also available in Pay&Go kiosks through its partnership with Bayad.
Meanwhile, BTI Payments also ensures that their partner establishments experience the simplicity and ease of becoming a Pay&Go location. Partners can take advantage of its’ plug & play nature, which means that setup only needs a power outlet. Besides this, they also benefit from increased foot traffic to their locations.
