Fawad Chaudhry’s next challenge is mobile phone payment system

Federal Minister for Science and Technology Minister Fawad Chaudhry said on Monday that his next challenge would be to replace debit cards in the country with a mobile phone payment system.

“It is necessary for payments to be made easy for technological advancement. Inshallah in the next few months you will be able to make all your payments through your mobile from your bus ticket to purchasing a new car,” Chaudhry wrote on Twitter.

قمری کیلنڈر کے بعد اگلا بڑا چیلنج کریڈٹ کارڈ اور ڈیبٹ کارڈز کو موبائل فون پیمنٹ سے replace کرنا ہے، ٹیکنالوجی کی ترقی کیلئے ادائیگیوں (payments) کا آسان ہونا لازمی ہے، انشااللہٰ چند مہینوں میں آپ کی تمام ادائیگیاں بس کے کرائے سے گاڑی خریدنے تک موبائل سے ہوں گی۔

Fawad Chaudhry said that a number of departments have collaborated to make the moonsighting website and calendar.
