Barbadians can now pay their bills at self-service kiosks and have greater access to digital alternatives to physical cash thanks to Bahamian fintech company Island Pay.During a ceremony on Monday at the Constitution River Terminal, The City, where the first kiosk is located, general manager of Island Pay Barbados, Omar Watson, said the company was on a mission to help the island evolve its financial services by introducing modern technology and partnering with government entities and the private sector to make business transactions easier and more convenient.He said commuters would be able to pay bills at some of the island’s terminals, adding that the company would soon be issuing credit cards and incorporating the new Trident ID card in its range of services.“Besides our budding relationship with the Transport Authority, we also very soon expect to have the new Barbados digital ID as a recognisable instrument at our kiosk and potentially play our part in many more Government driven initiatives,” Watson said.
