Pensioners urged to switch to E-zwich
The Manager of the Gomoa Rural Bank at Apam, Mr
Joseph Nyanyi, has appealed to pensioners to
switch to E-zwich because of its advantages.

He said Ghana is moving from paper money
transaction to electronic money transaction and
this makes the holder of E-Zwich easy to transact
business.

Mr Nyanyi was addressing members of the Gomoa
District branch of the Ghana Government Pensioners
Association (GGPA) at its monthly meeting at Apam
on Tuesday.

With the E-zwich, the holder does not need to
carry bulk sums of money on him or her and also in
the event of the card getting missing, no other
person can temper with the holder's account, he
said.

The Accountant of the Bank, Mr Daniel Gyampoh,
said the card is free and that salaried workers
would have half their salaries loaded on it whilst
the other half would be paid manually.

He said there is no disadvantage in the system and
rather makes all monetary transactions very easy
for the holder.

"If mistakenly the holder loses the card, his
money would remain intact and that no armed robber
can even manipulate it".
