Mobile Bulk Payment will allow organizations to make online payments from their Stanbic accounts to multiple mobile wallets including Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money, Ezypesa and Mpesa.

The solution will be offered on the bank’s Business Online platform, the corporate client’s equivalent of internet banking which offers corporate clients round the clock, convenient, fast and secure online banking capabilities for the efficient execution of their business transactions.

The Till to Bank cashless payment product will enable merchants to receive direct payments from Mobile Network Operators, via Mpesa, TigoPesa and Airtel money payments from their customers through a formal Till number and funds will be instantly directed to their Stanbic Bank accounts.

“Stanbic Bank is at the forefront of innovation. Digital payment is now overtaking cash payments and we foresee majority of transactions to be cashless in the coming years. We stand at the helm of facilitating this to our clients,” Mhina said.
