With the goal to provide the EyePay® Network in Ethiopia, IrisGuard established a strategic partnership with the local financial services partner Arifpay. The usage of IrisGuard’s digital payment infrastructure, which only authenticates and processes payments using a person’s iris, is said that it guarantees complete transparency that social support reaches the intended recipients.
The EyePay® Network, which offers proof-of-life for compliance with Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and Counter-Terrorism Financing (CTF) regulations, is indicated that it is one of the most secure and accountable payment platforms currently available. A real-time tracking program reportedly eliminates the possibility of fraud, double-dipping, and duplicate payment by continuously monitoring funds throughout the process.
Imad Malhas, Founder & Managing Director of IrisGuard commented, “We are proud to be part of such a remarkable milestone in Ethiopia with our partners at Arifpay. Ethiopia’s innovative landscape is the perfect stage for our EyePay® Network services and the kind of transparency and accountability levels it brings in the international humanitarian assistance arena. As part of our global expansion plans, we look forward to working with local partners, who share our passion for innovation and for expanding financial inclusion, in new regions across the world.”
