Middle East Payments Now Accepted
Dragonpay signed up with CashU for payment acceptance in the Middle Eeast for the latter's merchants.
- (1888PressRelease) March 26, 2015 - MANILA, Philippines - Dragonpay, in its mission to provide a broader range of payment channels for its merchants and to their respective clients has signed up with CashU, a payment gateway in the Middle East which enables its users to purchase goods and services online even without credit cards. A CashU Payment Account is a secure wallet used to make purchases from online merchants.
With a CashU Payment Account, a user can control and protect the balance in their account by limiting it only to the amount needed to cover immediate purchases. This makes it more secure than a credit card where the entire credit limit is available for purchases. CashU also offers a prepaid service where every transaction is password-protected, and funds are kept in an escrow account before being released to the Merchant.
Having a wide network in Arabic speaking and surrounding countries, CashU payments will enable Dragonpay's clients based abroad specifically in the Middle East to make secure online purchases with the latter's partner merchants. From the data gathered by POEA as published by the Bureau of Labor Employment Statistics (BLES), a total of 825,402 OFWs were deployed in the Middle East in 2012. The top middle east countries where OFW's are based include Saudia Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain.
Dragonpay currently offer payments via online banking, over-the-counter bank deposits and payment center payments. CashU payments will allow OFWs to make purchases from a Philippine based e-commerce site supporting Dragonpay payments without worrying about the payment remittance. Traditional payments from abroad include remittance fees and other charges which makes purchasing online more costly.
Another benefit of this service is that OFW's who want to send gifts to their relatives here in the country can now be done more conveniently. The OFW can just make the payment using their CashU account and set the shipping address to their recipients here. With this method, OFW's are now assured that the gifts they intend to give their loved ones will reach them.
