Dialog and Global Payments launch mPOS

Dialog Axiata PLC (Dialog) and Global Payments Asia-Pacific Limited (Global Payments), a card payment processor in the Asia Pacific, launched an innovative mobile payment solution that turns a smartphone or tablet into a mobile point-of-sale (mPOS) terminal – one of the first of its kind in Sri Lanka.

This mobile payment solution enables merchants to accept card payments beyond a counter-top sales environment and wherever business takes them within Sri Lanka.

This mobile payment solution helps small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to quickly and easily set up a means to accept MasterCard and Visa card payments through a smartphone or tablet.

“New payment solutions such as mPOS solution launched by Dialog and Global Payments help small merchants run their businesses more cost-effectively and efficiently using the latest payment technology. We believe this is the latest step in a series of progressive developments for the mobile payments market, and has the potential to open up an entirely new customer base for SME businesses,” said Senior General Manager, Mobile Money and Payments at Dialog Axiata, Fariq Cader.
