Bandhan Bank has partnered with the Odisha Government to enhance payment solutions for Odisha Tourism Development Corporation (OTDC) Ltd. The bank has provided Point of Sale (PoS) machines to facilitate card payments for tourists in 15 prime locations in the state. These machines will facilitate payment collections and provide convenience for tourists and OTDC officials.
The PoS machines will also help prevent revenue loss for OTDC, which may be caused by tourists’ lack of cash. The initiative aligns with the nation’s vision of becoming a less cash economy. Bandhan Bank currently has 150 banking outlets in Odisha and serves over 3 crore customers across 6,100 outlets across 34 states and union territories.
Commenting on the occasion, Shantanu Sengupta, Head – Retail Banking, Bandhan Bank, said, “Odisha has been an important market for Bandhan Bank over the years. We’re happy to partner with the Odisha Government in bringing convenient payment solutions to the tourists of the state. At Bandhan Bank, we are committed to be a bank for all and this endeavor is another step in that direction.”
