Mastercard, uwallet and Jordan Post Company have launched BareedPay, a co-branded card programme designed to expand access to secure and convenient digital payments across Jordan. The initiative supports the country’s digital transformation efforts, with a focus on improving financial access for underserved communities, small businesses and expatriates.
Through the partnership, Jordan Post Company, powered by uwallet, will provide cardholders with digital payment options for everyday transactions, including online shopping, government payments and bill settlements. The programme will also support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and merchants, while offering prepaid and multi-currency payment products, as well as domestic and cross-border money transfers.
