Payments

Prism Payments incorporates a number of consumer-based businesses that aim to improve the personal online transaction capabilities of Caribbean people living at home and abroad. Prism Payments are committed to creating an inclusive cashless society where anyone with a smart phone can easily achieve their daily banking needs online, from receiving wages to paying bills, without the need to queue up at banks or endanger themselves carrying around large sums of cash.

 

MyCash offers Jamaicans at home and in the USA a new way to manage their money by mobile. Safer than cash and credit cards, customers do all their daily banking directly from their smartphones, without needing to visit bank branches, complete paperwork or undertake background credit checks. MyCash is accessed entirely through a website and mobile app where customers can receive wages, pay bills and transfer money. Customers also receive an internationally accepted ATM card that works as a free prepaid Mastercard, so now you can shop online or offline anywhere in the world.

 

Paymaster processes millions of transactions for over one hundred clients, and hundreds of thousands of consumers every year. In Jamaica, Paymaster offers over 200 locations for consumers to pay their bills and over 2000 locations in the UK. The website and app allows the Jamaican diaspora in the US, UK, Canada and beyond to pay bills and top up mobiles of loved ones back home. Recent investment in the core IT systems and website has enhanced customer service and helped clients improve their collection rates.

This service will be available for Fonkoze's bank account holders in Haiti in the early months of 2021.
