  • Top Highlights from the #ICTchat Twitter Discussion on Digital Payments

    December 16, 2014 Editor 0

    Yesterday’s #ICTchat Twitter Chat was a huge success! Our #ICTchat hashtag brought in over 2.5 million impressions on Twitter with 839 tweets and 135 contributors. Our participants were from The United States, Uganda, and Nigeria to name a few. Thanks to everyone who participated, especially to USAID, NetHope, Better Than Cash Alliance, GBI, UNCDF, and GSMA.

    What were some of the highlights of the chat? Here are the three questions we asked with a few answers, some of which were from our four outstanding leaders:

    • Matt Homer, Senior Policy Advisor for Digital Finance at USAID;
    • Shelley Spencer, Program Director, NetHope/GBI Payments Innovations Team;
    • Beth Porter, Policy Advisor, Financial Inclusion, UNCDF/ Better Than Cash Alliance;
    • Hamilton McNutt, Program Manager, NetHope/GBI Payments Innovations Team.

    Q1: How are digital payments safer for those making and receiving payments in developing countries?
