DFCC Bank enables digital payments in buses
View(s):DFCC Bank has extended its digital payments infrastructure to Sri Lanka’s public transport network by enabling QR, credit and debit card acceptance in buses through DFCC Point of Sale (POS) terminals. This initiative supports the Ministry of Transport’s nationwide effort to modernise fare collection and shift the sector towards a cashless operating model, the bank said in a media release.
As part of the rollout, DFCC Bank will provide POS terminals to bus owners and operators in accordance with Ministry-issued operational guidelines. Each terminal is equipped with newly developed software compliant with the Ministry’s technical and regulatory standards, enabling secure, real-time fare collection and improved operational efficiency across bus fleets. The bank also offers an Electronic Ticket Issuing Machine (ETIM) in partnership with certified ticketing application providers and hardware partners, creating an integrated solution for daily bus operations.
This collaboration forms part of DFCC Bank’s broader strategy to advance digital payments across essential service sectors. With extensive POS deployments across multiple industries, the bank now extends its payment capability to public transportation in support of the Government’s long-term digital economy roadmap.
The introduction of digital payments on buses is expected to accelerate the national shift towards cashless mobility, giving passengers a faster, safer, and more convenient fare payment experience, while enhancing accountability and operational efficiency across Sri Lanka’s transport ecosystem.
