Besides, the bank had an objective to bring to customers’ understanding the importance and advantages of the e-Zwich Smart Card Payment System being introduced by the Bank of Ghana.

According to the Acting Head of Marketing and Direct Sales of the HFC Bank, Bekoe Palmer-Buckle e-Zwich is to serve as a national electronic platform for all payments, and settlements of financial transactions, between the various financial institutions, as well as businesses and individual customers.

Bekoe Palmer-Buckle also noted that transforming the Ghana's economy from a cash-based payment system to an electronic payment system has a number of benefits including the elimination of cash losses due to negligence, robbery and fraud.

Customers were told that the HFC bank had already gone live on the e-Zwich platform, with smart cards being issued and called on by Manager of the HFC Tamale Branch, Mr. Kwesi Asiedu Darko to immediately approach the bank for e-Zwich smart cards, to enable them have direct accounts with the bank, if they haven’t one.
