Ecobank Uganda has partnered with Carrefour Uganda to transform the retail shopping experience by providing seamless and secure payment options at all Carrefour stores across the country.
The partnership features the rollout of Ecobank’s Smart Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals, enabling customers to pay conveniently using contactless debit, prepaid, and credit cards, as well as mobile money platforms like MTN MoMo and Airtel Money.
The terminals also support major global networks including Visa, MasterCard, and Interswitch, along with Apple and Samsung Pay for added ease.
