PayPal services to be available to all phone numbers used in Maldives

Ooredoo's Chief Commercial Officer, Hussain Niyaz, has stated that PayPal services will be available to all phone numbers used in the Maldives.

Ooredoo Maldives and PayPal are currently working to officially establish a partnership to introduce PayPal services to the Maldives next year.

Regarding the matter, Niyaz said that the PayPal service the company is working to introduce will be available to all customers who use m-Faisaa. He said that since m-Faisaa is a wallet that can be used by customers of any network, people can access the PayPal service by creating an m-Faisaa wallet, regardless of their current service provider.

The announcement by Ooredoo to introduce PayPal services comes after the Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA) granted Ooredoo the necessary Inward Remittance License last Wednesday.

Ooredoo stated that with the launch of PayPal services in the Maldives next year, financial transactions can be conducted from the Maldives with countless global entities that accept PayPal. The company noted that the PayPal service will be accessible through Ooredoo's m-Faisaa accounts.
