The client
The BIG Will Group of companies has several subsidiaries, which are operating internationally in South America, Europe and the USA. All subsidiaries are independent operating entities. The Group provides strategic guidance, financial and administrative IT services, and acts as legal and human resource counsel.
The challenge
In many countries, cash is still the most preferred payment method. This creates a high dependency on how you carry cash (bills & coins) which could complicate payments and can lead to unsafe situations. This is partly because some countries’ financial infrastructure is not yet ready for a transformation towards digital payments. This challenge required a digital solution that facilitates payments for small/medium-sized services and products and aids people in the adoption of a digital customer-centric payment system.
Our solution
Together with GWAP, Lizard Global developed a mobile application that allows various types of users, such as merchants and consumers, to perform online transactions (of SRDs).
