Let's see the advantages of bKash Payment:
• Payment by scanning Bangla QR code: bKash customers now can easily make payments by scanning Bangla QR code after shopping at various stores. Besides, due to interoperability of Bangla QR, customers of other financial institutions can also transact seamlessly.
• Payment via online gateways: bKash is the easiest payment method when ordering products or services from e-commerce and f-commerce sites, as most platforms offer the convenience of bKash payment directly or through payment gateways.
• Add Money whenever needed: In addition to traditional Cash In from agent points, customers can use the 'Add Money' feature in the bKash app to transfer funds from locally issued Visa, Amex, or Mastercard as well as bank accounts to the bKash account.
• Emergency shopping with 'Pay Later': If bKash account balance is insufficient, eligible customers can complete their necessary shopping using the 'Pay Later' service by utilising the digital loan limit provided by the City Bank via bKash app. If the amount is repaid within seven days, there is no interest.
• Direct payment from linked Visa cards: Furthermore, by scanning Bangla QR, bKash customers can make direct payments from Visa cards linked to their bKash app. To do this, customers need to select the payment option in bKash app, enter merchant number or scan QR code, and specify the amount. Then, by selecting the Visa card saved in the bKash app, payment can be completed using the OTP received from the respective bank via SMS or email.
• Scope to create credit profile for merchants: As a large segment of the country's small entrepreneurs operates in informal sector, most lack the required documentation to apply for formal sector loans.Now, bKash merchants can use their digital transaction records to build credit profiles and secure formal loans in near future.
This comprehensive digital ecosystem of bKash has not only given impetus to the urban but also to the rural economy. It has opened up new business horizons for small entrepreneurs especially f-commerce and e-commerce. By creating this simple, secure and inclusive payment ecosystem, bKash has proven how the right use of technology can ensure financial empowerment of the entire population of a country.
