The Trincomalee Town Storming Promotion carried out by LankaPay, together with several financial institutions, as part of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka’s ත්රිකුණාමලය regional digital payments initiative, was a great success, with close to 750 tourism sector merchants in the area being onboarded to LankaQR.
The campaign was conducted on 3rd and 4th June across Nilaveli, Uppuveli, Alles Garden, and Trincomalee, where teams engaged directly with merchants to demonstrate how digital payments can simplify day-to-day transactions while supporting business growth through greater payment convenience.
Here are some highlights from the Hatton National Bank PLC team's field campaign.
Through LankaQR Cross-Border Payments, merchants can accept payments from international visitors using their preferred payment apps, benefiting from faster settlements, greater efficiency, and a seamless payment experience for both tourists and businesses alike.
