ISLAMABAD: *International payment service expands it’s services acrossPakistan.*

Freelancing is gaining traction all over the globe and Pakistan is nodifferent. However, a lack of payment gateways for foreign remittancescontinues to pose a challenge for freelancers in Pakistan.

So far, the common options available in the country are Express Withdrawaland Wire Transfers that allow payments directly into bank accounts.

Another international payment gateway, Payoneer, is also available inPakistan through its linkages with ATMs of MCB, Standard Chartered andFaysal Bank.

In a move to expand its service, Payoneer has decided that it “will now beavailable for mobile wallets as well”.

Telecom operator Jazz has partnered with financial services companyPayoneer, providing users with the option of having up to Rs1.5 million intheir mobile wallets and linking them with Payoneer.

The process will work through JazzCash mobile account, where anyone wishingto receive payment from foreign resources may get the money transferreddirectly to their mobile account.
