2013-08-06 16:50:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Orange has launched a mobile payment service in Botswana in partnership with Visa to enable Orange Money customers to make Visa payments in store, online and at ATMs. Botswana will be the first country to benefit from the new service. Currently, Orange Money allows customers to use their mobile phones to transfer funds to any mobile subscriber in or outside the country, buy airtime, and pay bills. From August, registered Orange Money subscribers in Botswana will be able to use their Orange Money account to make Visa-enabled payments and pay invoices at stores, international online merchants and at over 300 Visa ATMs across the country. To access the services, Orange Money subscribers will need to apply for a Orange Money prepaid Visa card, which will be instantly linked to their existing Orange Money account. The card is secured with a PIN code.
