Maya, the country’s #1 fintech ecosystem with the #1 digital bank and omnichannel payment processor, emphasized the growing demand among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) for advanced digital banking services at the recently concluded Cashless Expo 2023.
“Our SMEs are not just ready for digital payments; they are eager for comprehensive digital banking solutions,” said Richard Labitag, Maya Head of Acceptance and SME.
As a co-presenter of the groundbreaking Cashless Expo 2023, organized by GoDigital Pilipinas in partnership with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), and the Department of Agriculture (DA), Maya stood out as the champion for digital banking among consumer and enterprises.
“With consumers increasingly adopting digital banking, it’s now time for our SMEs to follow suit. By facilitating digital payment transactions and offering tools like business deposits, we’re simplifying their transition to the digital economy and opening doors to essential financial services like credit,” Labitag added during the event.
From Payments to Digital Banking
Based on the 2022 Status of Digital Payments Report of the BSP, 42 percent of payment transactions have shifted to digital or e-payments as of the end-2022. Maya has been pivotal in driving this change, focusing on empowering consumers and businesses with tailored financial solutions.
“Maya Business serves as the financial backbone for various enterprises, particularly SMEs. We’re now elevating this support with our integrated digital banking solutions, offering a comprehensive platform encompassing payment acceptance, disbursement, business deposits, credit, and money management tools,” elaborated Labitag.
