‘මාතරට LANKAQR’, the latest phase of Central Bank of Sri Lanka’s ‘රට පුරාම LANKAQR’ island-wide initiative, took place on the 3rd of April at the Sanath Jayasuriya Ground, Matara. The event was graced by Chief Guest, Hon. Dallas Alahapperuma along with Mr. D Kumaratunge, Director of Payments and Settlements at the Central Bank of Sri Lanka to witness FriMi’s continuous efforts in supporting the CBSL’s journey to promote contactless payments and drive Sri Lanka towards a digital forward economy.
The Matara drive marked a milestone moment for FriMi as they partnered with Asiri Super, a leading shopping complex in Matara, which was recently awarded the title “Entrepreneur of the Year – Medium Category, Service Sector” at the Southern Province – Best Entrepreneur Awards Ceremony 2020. This is a symbolic occurrence as FriMi, being the leader in digital payments, enabled contactless payments with one of the best entrepreneurs in Matara.
Building on the success of this event, FriMi also initiated a partnership with Samanmal Textiles, another leading merchant in area, to facilitate contactless payments – a super convenient payment method ideal for customers who will be shopping during the upcoming Avurudu season
