Kathmandu, June 21
Users of the payment
service provider e-sewa can now withdraw money from their e-sewa account
through ATM machines. The company has launched the new service in collaboration
with Everest Bank.
There is no need to use
any kind of card while withdrawing the amount in e-sewa from the ATM. Users can
easily withdraw cash from ATMs through OTP on their mobile phones. Previously,
to withdraw the amount in e-sewa, the users had to transfer it to the bank
account.
The company said that this
service has been launched for the first time among wallet companies in Nepal.
Jagadish Khadka, Chief
Executive Officer of e-sewa, said in a press conference held in Lalitpur on
Wednesday to inform about the service, "We have always been giving
priority to cashless economy and operating the same kind of services. But
sometimes the amount in e-sewa is needed in cash, so we have started this
service with the aim of making it convenient for the users."
Likewise, Bijaya Kumar
Sharma, Deputy CEO of Everest Bank, said that they were excited to collaborate
with Nepal's first and leading wallet company like e-sewa. "e-sewa users
can easily withdraw money through any ATM machine of Everest Bank located all
over the country," he informed.
Currently, about 7.5
million customers are using the service of e-sewa through Android and iOS
mobiles. It has more than 200,000 agents across the country.
