About ArifPay
ArifPay Wallet is an electronic payment platform allows users to transfer, store, request, accept money using ArifPay mobile application. The Ethiopian government has recently made a push to stimulate innovation in the financial sector, permitting electronic payment issuers to operate independently with banks, consumers, and merchants. Arifpay is well-positioned to become the premier electronic payment issuer in Ethiopia: it has already tested and integrated its software among many of the major banks, and it is the best product in the market that can support electronic billing, electronic receipts, and tax recording services.
