By Staff Reporter — MUSCAT: April 30 - A new mobile e-payment system has been launched in Oman, which will be available for all Android and Apple devices. It will offer a safe, simple, and highly secure alternative payment method to cash, cheques, credit and debit cards. The e-payments platform was launched at a special ceremony yesterday at the Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort in Muscat, under the auspices of His Highness Sayyid Taimur bin Asaad bin Tareq al Said,  Assistant Secretary-General for Communications at the Scientific Research Council.


The new e-payment platform and mobile app, once launched and operational, will help revolutionise the way payments can be made in Oman.


It will take away the complexity of remembering multiple pins and passwords all while keeping banking information completely private and making payments simple and secure; offering a safe alternative to cash or card payments. The simplified nature of the app will also provide users and retailers in Oman with the ability to carry out transactions regardless of where they are located.
