Pizarea promotes cashless society

Over the years the world has moved from a cash/paper society to a cashless/paperless one.

From cash to check, to credit cards and debit cards and now online banking and mobile commerce payment methods. The rise of mobile phone penetration is changing the way businesses accept payments.

However in Africa and indeed Ghana, the response to accepting this mobile trend has been slow. Due to limitations such as low internet penetration, high illiteracy rate increased corruption, high standard of living and the general lack of trust in our notable institutions, we have only made but a slow progress in moving with this global trend.

On our side of the continent, it has been discovered that quite a substantial number of people have expressed some misgivings about online payments or transactions due to certain past experiences and lack of trust in the system.

People feel more secure with physical cash than keeping it in an invisible account. Instead of using online payment methods for their transactions, they feel more comfortable going the traditional way of using cash.

Nevertheless, when it comes to accepting cashless payments for goods and services, mobile payments is becoming a major technological driver in Ghana.

This is mainly because according to GhIPSS, over 80 percent of businesses in the country are SMEs controlling about 50 percent of the total cash in the economy.

This is one of the major reasons why Pizarea has embedded this into its system in the form of accepting payments via Mobile Money, Visa Cards, MasterCard etc.

to serve majority of the Ghanaian populace. Moreover, it is mostly in the interest of the customers to purchase food on Pizarea without any hustle. You do not need to drive to a restaurant to be able to pay for food, or to stress about not having cash handy when you want to buy food.
