Tata Consultancy Services (BSE: 532540, NSE: TCS), a leading IT services, consulting and business solutions organization announced the successful launch of Norwayâs first peer-to-peer mobile payment solution with DNB, the largest financial services group in Norway.
Dubbed âVippsâ, DNBâs peer-to-peer mobile payments application is not just for account holders of DNB, but can be used by any consumer. With 25% of Norwayâs population using âVippsâ within six months of launch, the P2Ppayment solution has helped DNB become a significant player in the highly competitive mobile payments space in a short span of time. Moreover, 85% of Norwegians know about the P2P payments platform and it is the #1 downloaded app in Norway.
The core of mobile solution, created by TCS is its easy operability as a safe and secure payment option. Vipps makes mobile payments as simple as sending a text message and is available for use on all mobile devices. Another key feature is that it allows short chat messaging between the users.
âWe gave TCS a challenge, and they reacted quickly. For us, the project has demonstrated that TCS is a trustworthy partner with good focus on strategic business value. As DNBâs digital partner, TCS has shown strong customer focus. TCS has led the project with first class technical expertise and great staminaâ said Liv Fiksdahl, Group Executive Vice President and Head of IT & Operations in DNB.
