P&TLuxembourg is offering a service that enables users to make purchases at the point of sale as well as paying bills and making online payments.

Users need to download an app for the Digicash mobile payment network, a service developed by a local company called DigicashPayments. The Post Digicash app is free and is available for iOS and Android handsets.

The service is available for users of P&T’s CCP Connect, the operator’s internet banking service. The app enables users to make payments at retailers affiliated with the Digicash network. Users still need to have downloaded apps from their individual banks.

P&T claims Digicash is “the first multi-bank mobile payment solution in Europe to provide direct access to accounts and to be available on a large-scale basis across an entire national market”.
