We look forward to moving forward in expanding our service base to serve a wider range of customers. Our efforts are in line with the national plan and the directives of the Central Bank of Bahrain, to encourage and create a cashless society to strengthen the digital community through launching a variety of services in different sectors.”
 
Fuad Nonoo, Managing Director, NEC said: “This new service is the first of its kind in the kingdom of Bahrain. This partnership will enhance and provide our customers with added payment options provided by the company. Benefit Pay is amongst the most innovative tools which allow for the operation of electronic payments, allowing our customers to have more electronic options, especially during these difficult times where our focus is directed at reducing the use of physical cash, in line with the preventative measures taken to combat Covid-19.”
