Payment Source said that Amazon Cash will now be part of its Loadhub pay-in-person solution.
Payment Source CEO Trevor Cook said: “Offering Canadians a convenient way to pay for online purchases with cash or debit is a key step towards financial inclusion.
“The benefits of ecommerce should not be restricted to Canadians with access to a credit card. Amazon Cash brings that online shopping experience to everyone.”
The deal will ensure that Amazon Cash is accessible to 98% of Canada population as Loadhub’s is available at 6,000 Canada Post locations across Canada.
To use Amazon Cash, clients need to visit Amazon website or app to receive a barcode linked to their account. Then they have to bring this barcode to any Canada Post location, where the Loadhub platform enables them to add funds to their account.
