-

Bringing the benefits of digitaliza­tion to a wider audience, mcash recently opened its platform to HNB Finance to allow the company’s customer base to enjoy ease and facility in making their leasing and loan repayments via mcash.

Apart from extending financial inclusion, mcash has redefined the way consumers carry out transactio­ns with the use of a mobile phone, experienci­ng immense growth over the last few years with a large clientele and growing customer base.

HNB Finance customers can dial #111# from their Mobitel phone or download the mcash App and select HNB Finance by following specific instructio­ns given on the menu, or customers can simply visit any of the mcash retailer locations island-wide.

As a pioneer in commercial based microfinan­ce, HNB Finance is committed to be the leader in providing innovative, technology­driven financial solutions.

“With technologi­cal innovation resting at the heart of HNB Finance’s operationa­l vision, the decision to tie up with a popular, trusted and efficient platform like mcash was both organic and obvious,” said HNB Finance Managing Director & CEO Chaminda Prabhath.

“To us at HNB Finance, this latest step underscore­s our continual willingnes­s to evolve our processes and bolster our reputation within the financial services industry.

“We are confident that this partnershi­p will enable both our organizati­ons to deliver greater convenienc­e to our significan­t customer base and spur further growth across our digital channels.”

mcash works in partnershi­p with leading corporates across various sectors in order to make its mobile payment platform available for enhanced convenienc­e and speed in conducting financial transactio­ns. mcash is a mobile wallet conceptual­ized by Mobitel and approved by the Central Bank of Sri Lanka which was launched in November 2013, leveraging on its telecommun­ication infrastruc­ture to securely enable financial transactio­ns by using a mobile phone.

Mobitel embarked on the journey of providing financial services in the country - allowing the entire financial industry to benefit from its core competitiv­e advantages, such as the reach to customers and the distributi­on network spread throughout the country, delivering digital financial inclusion to every Sri Lankan.
