Today, technology continues to reshape the society we live in. For several years, physical vouchers have been
used to distribute airtime and other utility services. With the advent of technology t raditional forms of airtime
distribution and bill payments are fast being taken over by Payment Platforms like PayWay®. The need to
operate at a global
level, creating convenience and cutting down costs has caused the establishment of
PayWay® in Zimbabwe. PayWay® is a brand of PWY Payment Platform of Russia. In Zimbabwe, the PayWay® Payment Platform is
operated by Content Connect [Private] Limited under license from PWY Platform Limited the proprietors of the
technology. PayWay®’ s initial footprint in Africa was first set in Kenya and the head office has since moved to Uganda, but
it has since successfully launched in Zambia and Cameroon also, just to name a few. Through this innovative
and robust platform, PayWay® brings convenience to bill payments and purchase of airtime and data bundles
in Zimbabwe, thereby creating a good platform for Income Generating Projects [IGP] focused on the SMEs. PayWay® delivers services through three channels: web based interface [PayWay® Wallet], Self Service Kiosks
and Point of Sale Terminals [POS]. In Zimbabwe, PayWay® intends to yield itself as Zimbabwe’ s primary payment platform; today.
