That’s according to the digital payments service company, Triple, which says that 75% of transactions in the UAE currently use cash, but that figure is set to plunge. It’s as demand is increasing for technology such as mobile wallets, electronic payments and global money transfers. Triple adds that consumers, including the ‘unbanked', are looking for more convenient ways to spend, send and receive money.
