Ericsson’s Wallet Platform has been leveraged by Mobily to launch Mobily Pay, a mobile financial service, during LEAP23. The service is available to all the users in the Kingdom to carry out personalized financial services like contactless payments, money transfers, international remittances, digital card payments, cash-back, bill payments, mobile top-ups and more, securely and at their convenience.
