Fintech for Health: The Rise of Digital Payments under COVID-19

The use of digital or cashless payments have seen a sharp rise under COVID-19 with mobile money becoming a way to not just pay for products but also to avoid the transmission of the SARS-CoV2 virus. Increasingly, digital technologies are being used to abide by social distancing policies and prevent further spread of the virus.

The Rise of Digital Payments under COVID-19 online event, the first in a series of Fintech for Health webinars, aims to share how the digital payments industry has changed rapidly in response to the pandemic, and why it makes more sense than ever to integrate digital payments platforms with healthcare financing and delivery platforms.

Speakers for this event will include representatives from Access Health International Southeast Asia, CGAP, MetLife Foundation, Alliance for Financial Inclusion, and MicroSave Consulting.
