According to Bisi Onasanya, Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer – “Over
the years, payment cards issued by banks in emerging economies have had
the challenge of acceptance for e-commerce transactions, especially by
international merchants and online content providers.

In recent times particularly, the payment needs of Nigerians have continued to evolve with more people desiring to purchase goods and services online and from far flung markets across the globe.
This need increasingly underscores the imperatives for an internationally and easily acceptable e-commerce payment platform. This partnership is, therefore, opportuned at this time of accelerating e-commerce evolution in Nigeria. It is equally noteworthy, as it syncs with FirstBank’s enhanced service solutions for its SME, e-business, mobile banking and Online banking customers“.
