Ooredoo has today announced its Mobile Money Payroll service has seen a huge uptake in the past few months, with thousands of employers now switching to the smart payment method.

The service, which enables employers to pay their staff directly into their mobile phones mWallet via Ooredoo Mobile Money, has gained significant popularity in Qatar in just under 3 months, with a record number of over 30,000 employees and 2,000 businesses across the country due to be enrolled by the end of November.

The service promises companies a smarter way to pay employee salaries, saving businesses on banking processing fees, reducing accounting and administration costs and improving business efficiencies. The Mobile Money Payroll service is also complicit with the regulations of Qatar’s Wage Protection System (WPS), offering peace of mind for workers and employers alike.

Talking about the uptake, Waleed Al Sayed, COO Ooredoo Qatar said: “Ooredoo believe in enhancing our customer’s lives with our technology and OMM allows us to simply and effectively do this. Ooredoo Mobile Money has become one of the fastest growing services we offer, and with more and more people looking for smart banking and transfer services we plan to continue to develop the service to fulfil our growing country’s needs.”

For employees, the system offers simple and understandable access to financial services such as local and international transfers for users unable to access a local bank account, as well as a secure and convenient alternative to carrying cash and access to an OMM Payroll Account and bank card that can be used at ATMs across Qatar.

The Ooredoo Mobile Money Payroll service was launched in partnership with QNB (Qatar National Bank), and is the region’s first payroll service via mobile.

New customers can register for free for Mobile Money by simply visiting any Ooredoo Shop, dialling *140# or downloading the free Ooredoo Money App. Once registered, customers can begin to deposit money into their Mobile Wallet via over 200+ Ooredoo’s Self Service Machines or through any Ooredoo Shop.
