She said the scheme is innovative as one can pay and withdraw money from the merchants, as well as Automated Teller Machines that have compatible solutions.

Obehi Ebhomielen, head of department, PayAttitude, noted that “Those POS terminals that you see with PayAttitude logo are not just ordinary ones.
They are NFC enabled POS and the moment you spend or add money through it, it has the capability to immediately reflect new balance. It is that smart to know exactly the transaction you have done and these are the unique propositions of PayAttitude”.

Speaking further, he said, “as long as customers transfer money to their e-purse, all transactions done, with the fund being adequate, will be successful, because the value sits on the tag. So the PoS does not need to speak to any third party to confirm the value, but speaks directly to the tag and authorize payment, as well as write the new balance in the tag also.”
