Interesting read.

Steyn said the “common thread” in the complaints related to the top four categories was that the majority of the consumers unfortunately fell victim to fraudulent scams. The bulk of these matters were found in favour of the banks.

This was because, after a full investigation, “the OBS was forced to conclude that the fraudsters managed to manipulate the consumers into transferring funds into their account or to give them their confidential banking details which then enabled the fraudulent transactions”.

The Ombudsman for Banking Services' annual report reveals that it opened 7 717 formal cases in 2020 - a new record. That's a 19% increase on the prior year, despite the Covid-19 lockdown.

Challenging 6 informal sector myths
Last year, Nedbank, in partnership with Synthesis, Mastercard and Visa, released the first tap-on-phone technology in Africa, allowing anyone with a compatible handset to convert their phone into a payment acceptance device. For this segment of merchants, who are processing a low number of transactions, separate point of sale (POS) devices will no longer be required to accept card payments.

This will eliminate barriers, particularly those in the informal sector and it will drive innovation in the retail industry. But is the informal sector ready for this innovation and is Africa ready to go cashless?

Technology liberates. To understand if the informal sector is ready to adopt tech innovation, certain myths need to shattered, says Kim Furman from Synthesis...
