The Digital Bahrain GCC Contactless Challenge is a unique initiative that is helping to revolutionize the way people pay for goods and services in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. The challenge was launched in 2020 and is designed to encourage the use of contactless payments in the region. The challenge requires businesses to accept contactless payments from customers, and it also encourages customers to use contactless payments when making purchases.
The challenge has been met with great success, with many businesses in the region embracing contactless payments. However, there is one small exception that is preventing some businesses from fully completing the challenge. This exception is that some businesses are unable to accept contactless payments from customers who do not have a bank account in the GCC region.
This issue is due to the fact that contactless payments require customers to have a bank account in order to make payments. As a result, customers who do not have a bank account in the GCC region are unable to make contactless payments. This means that businesses that accept contactless payments are unable to serve these customers, which prevents them from fully completing the Digital Bahrain GCC Contactless Challenge.
Fortunately, there are solutions that can help businesses overcome this issue. One solution is for businesses to partner with a payment provider that can process payments from customers who do not have a bank account in the GCC region. This will enable businesses to accept contactless payments from all customers, regardless of whether they have a bank account in the GCC region or not.
Another solution is for businesses to offer alternative payment methods such as cash or debit cards. This will enable customers who do not have a bank account in the GCC region to make payments without having to use contactless payments.
By implementing these solutions, businesses can ensure that they are able to fully complete the Digital Bahrain GCC Contactless Challenge and serve all customers, regardless of whether they have a bank account in the GCC region or not. This will help to further promote the use of contactless payments in the region and make it easier for businesses and customers to make payments.
