This QR code is a universal payment platform that you can use to buy any product or service, be it on the go or at your favorite place in waakye. All you need to do is capture the code on your phone or tablet and then confirm the payments, just like the mobile money transaction. What’s different about this is that you won’t need codes or passwords to send cash.
According to Dr. Bawumia, the launch of the QR Code makes Ghana the first in Africa to introduce such an innovation. According to him, the whole plan is to ensure that less physical cash is seen across the country.
