PalmPay Champions Contactless Payments

PalmPay has reaffirmed its dedication to advancing the future of payments in Nigeria by promoting the widespread adoption of contactless-enabled payment terminals.

This was made known during the recently concluded BusinessDay Future of Payment Conference, themed: ‘Fintech Evolution: Gateway to Payments.’ In his welcome address, BusinessDay Publisher, Frank Aigbogun, emphasised that the next phase of fintech innovation must be driven not only by speed, safety, and simplicity but also by trust, inclusion, and accessibility to ensure broad-based impact across all segments of society

Talking about PalmPay’s impact in the panel session titled ‘The Next Wave of Digital Payments: Trends and Innovation,’ Senior Business Development manager at PalmPay, Ifeanyi Uzoka discussed the evolving landscape of digital payments in Nigeria.

He noted that, while regulatory frameworks have supported the introduction of contactless payments, the high level of cash dependency remains a key barrier to widespread adoption.

“At PalmPay, is financial inclusion central to everything we do? To support this mission, we’ve launched contactless-enabled debit and premium cards, ensuring our users have access to convenient and secure payment experiences. We also understand that trust is critical, which is why all contactless transactions on PalmPay’s platform include an additional layer of authentication for enhanced security,” he noted.
