Project Description

This project aims to increase access to financial/banking services through developing alternative delivery channels and to design products delivered through these channels. The project will support the development of innovative and sustainable e-banking solutions using alternative delivery channels such as mobile phones, EFTPOS and payment card infrastructure to initially deliver payment services at low cost to the base of the pyramid as well as micro, small, and medium enterprises, while eventually helping to increase access to banking services more broadly.
