SCT cards to load mobile wallet

Kathmandu, Aug. 20

Smart Choice Technologies (SCT) Ltd., a payment system operator licensed by Nepal Rastra Bank, has now enabled easy loading of various mobile wallets operating in Nepal using the SCT Global Debit Card.

“Customers can now conveniently top up their mobile wallets such as eSewa, Khalti, Hamro Pay, and others directly using the SCT Global Debit Card, where this feature is available,” the company said in a statement on Wednesday.

All mobile wallets and merchant applications that are integrated with Nabil Bank's electronic payment gateway (ePG) now support this functionality.

This service allows customers to make payments not only at ATMs using their SCT Global Debit Card but also through digital wallets, which has made it easier to pay for services such as e-commerce transactions, airline ticket purchases, and more.

Currently, SCT is issuing the SCT Global Debit Card through 23 banks and financial institutions and over 100 cooperatives. Customers interested in obtaining the SCT Global Debit Card can easily get one from any of the member banks and financial institutions.
