To build on this existing partnership, Equity bank Kenya and PayPal have expanded their partnership. This upgraded linkage will see users enjoy a more convenient withdrawal setup. The new move will enable users to link their PayPay accounts to the Equity bank mobile app as well as the bank’s internet banking service; Equity Online. This is all intended to boost efficiency and smoothen the process of onboarding PayPal accounts for Equity bank customers. This migration from the previously used web portal to the mobile app and internet banking platforms will present customers with a seamless withdrawal service. Equity is also set to benefit from increased revenues from commissions charged for such transactions. This integration will see customers enjoy additional services that meet diverse customer needs due to its geographical scalability.
