Bank of Maldives (BML) has introduced its Cashless Ride service to Hulhumale’.

The service allows customers to use their debit or credit cards to pay for the taxi service.

A Point of Sale (PoS) device is fitted inside every ‘Cashless Ride’ taxi. Customers can pay using any card accepted by BML and they will receive a printed receipt to confirm their transaction. They will also have the option of paying for their ride using BML MobilePay, the Bank’s contactless payment service.

BML began its ‘Cashless Ride’ service in capital city Male’ in February last year. Speaking after the inauguration of ‘BML Cashless Ride’, BML Deputy CEO and Director of Operations, Mohamed Shareef, said: “We are delighted to launch this convenient new service which facilitates quick and secure payments. We believe that our customers will benefit from the option of not having to count out cash and wait for their change at the end of a taxi journey, especially given how busy the roads can get.”
