Payments on the go with new apps

In line with its ‘Customers First’ strategy and for Dubai’s eTransformation, Dubai eGovernment has launched two new mobile applications. These help facilitate real-time ePayment services and allow easy access to services at GITEX TECHNOLOGY WEEK 2012.

The first application is designed to offer immediate ePayment services via mobile phones to facilitate access to information and online payment transactions of three main government services: Dubai Police fines, DEWA bills and RTA Salik account recharge. The second application covers Dubai Government services such as information, location and contact details of government authorities and departments, and also the filing of complaints or making suggestions online.

In addition, the public will be able to stay up-to-date with the latest news on Dubai and government authorities, as well as the various events taking place in the emirate, while also being able to access a database of information on more than 1,600 exciting landmarks in and around Dubai. These applications also make available a mixture of the latest events, news, radio programmes and TV shows to users.

“These new applications are of immense importance as they represent an effective, highly-advanced mobile channel enabling users-on-the-go to access our electronic services anytime, anywhere,” says Ahmed Bin Humaidan, director general of Dubai eGovernment. “Dubai eGovernment has ensured that these applications are in sync with the Dubai Government Portal, as well as with Dubai government eServices.”
