    Vodafone launches M-Pesa PAY to help merchants
    Credits:
  • Vodafone India, in a bid to ease the burden on merchants and retailers in post-demonetization India, launched M-Pesa PAY on its already existing mobile wallet service.

    This announcement marks another attempt by tech companies and other service providers to boost the use of digital currency in an otherwise cash starved India.

    The app will enable retailers and merchants to receive cashless payments from customers.
