Business news. Following extensive discussion, credEcardplus and UK based Caribbean media house CaribDirect Multi-Media are pleased to formally announce that they will be working together for the benefit of the African Caribbean Community in the UK and Caribbean.
The main aim of the partnership is to engage with both the UK Caribbean business community including High Commissions, Tourist Boards and airlines, as well as the general UK Caribbean Diaspora, providing all with a CredEcardplus personal account and Visa Debit card. The payment facility is available to all, regardless of financial history, and can be used for shopping online or on the high street, undertake money transfers and pay bills. Key benefits to card and account holders include: no unexpected overdraft or admin fees for account holders, cards can be used to transfer money to relatives and associates overseas, low ethical fees and FX rates and more.
CaribDirect’s CEO David F. Roberts has expressed, ‘It’s a very good day for the Caribbean community that has historically experienced financial difficulties, not least due to charges levied by banks and also the cost of transfer fees incurred when sending money home to the Caribbean. The CredEcard will provide peace of mind and convenience with supporting relations back in the Caribbean and Guyana. I’m very pleased that CaribDirect is able to provide yet another useful facility for the benefit of the Caribbean community.’
Geoff Leech, credEcard Managing Director added, “we are pleased to be providing the community with a cost effective payment solution that is available to all regardless of financial status. We wish CaribDirect every successs with this initiative”.
