The new contactless prepaid card is an important milestone in Sohar International’s digital transformation journey.
“It not only provides customers a sense of safety and security due to their pre-loaded limit feature but also allows them to control spends online by controlling funds available in the prepaid card. This falls in line with our principles to provide more value, more velocity, and more vision to our clients and the society at large.”
