According to him, the Mobile ePOS technology helps businesses throughout the nation expand and succeed, making transactions easier.
Beyond facilitating payments, Muade said that ePOS technology would help redefine human connection.
He said:
“At Tingo Mobile, our commitment goes beyond transactions; we are on a mission to redefine the very fabric of how people connect, interact, and transact with a simple tap."
He said that the cutting-edge ePOS system is more than just a tool to accept payments; it's a catalyst for smooth interactions that unite people in the digital age and change how communities and businesses use technology.
The company stated that, with the ePOS, security continues to be a top priority and a pillar of its product offerings.
It added:
“Our system links each account securely to a specific device, fortifying merchant login details and preventing unauthorised access on alternative devices.”
It noted that the robust security framework underscores its dedication to fostering trust and reliability in every transaction made through Tingo ePOS.
This comes after the Tingo Group's stocks were banned from trading by the US Stocks and Exchange Commission (SEC) due to fraud charges regarding the group's allegedly false public financial statements and assets.
However, according to The Cable report, the Tingo Group has defended the misstatement allegation in its financial accounts. It claimed that they were "typographical errors."
