Awash Bank has significant market coverage which represents a strong entry into an important market with a proven market leader. Awash Bank is also the majority owner of the PSS switch. “Our partnership with Discover Global Network reflects our commitment to increase and diversify payments for our local and international merchant clients and, in doing this, they will have more opportunities for revenue growth.” said Tadesse Gemeda, Chief Wholesale Banking Officer, Awash Bank.

The agreement makes it possible for Discover to collaborate with additional acquiring banks in the region in an effort to increase acceptance for Discover, Diners Club International, PULSE and Network Alliance partner cards from POS, ATMs and via the e-commerce payment pages. “Our cardholders, both as corporate travelers and tourists, wish to use their preferred card as they resume their international travels to Ethiopia.
