Banking apps to help Ghanaians with social distancing

Doing online or virtual transactions are gradually becoming the order of the day following the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

Banking apps to help Ghanaians with social distancing

The pandemic has forced certain changes in the global landscape and the banking sector has not been left out.

With everyone in Ghana currently taking social distancing protocols very seriously, the use of banking apps has surged in recent weeks.

Rather than step out and risk contracting the virus, or even going to the bank to meet a long queue, one can sit from the comfort of his home and do all the necessary transactions.

Below are some banking apps that can help Ghanaians make transactions while still observing social distancing:

1. expressPay

This is an eCommerce market place and a payment gateway provider which helps with online truncations.

Once you have the expressPay App on your phone, you can send money from your VISA or Mastercard to your mobile money account and vice versa, without having to move to an ATM to make the transaction.

2. PayPal
