The St. Lucia-based digital wallet provider, Penny Pinch, says it has entered into an exclusive alliance with Mastercard that will allow the two companies to promote financial inclusion efforts across the Eastern Caribbean islands by offering a suite of payment and acceptance solutions collaborate.

“We are excited to work alongside Mastercard to leverage today’s technology to launch a world-class card product that will revolutionize how the unbanked and underbanked manage and spend their money. By building from the ground up, we can provide an unrivaled customer experience backed by the latest security and fraud protection features” said Penny Pinch’s Chief Executive Officer, Martin Hanna.

Penny Pinch said this ground-breaking alliance has the potential to yield significant benefits for Caribbean residents and small businesses and will work together to expand access to electronic payments and build simple and secure payment options throughout the Eastern Caribbean.

The Caribbean digital wallet company said the new agreement will allow for collaboration with local financial institutions to offer a prepaid Mastercard to thousands of expanding mobile wallet customers, ultimately enabling them to spend their wallet balance everywhere Mastercard is accepted.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_btn size=”small” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Read The Full Article” margin_left=”275″ url=”https://www.caribbeannationalweekly.com/news/caribbean-news/new-digital-wallet-initiatives-for-consumers-across-the-eastern-caribbean-region/”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
