Slydepay, a locally-developed electronic payments platform, has launched “Pay like a Boss” campaign to enable individuals, businesses, and institutions receive and send payments across a variety of channels including mobile phones, bank accounts, and payment cards (VISA & MasterCard).
Speaking at the launch in Accra, Mr. Derrydean Dadzie, CEO of DreamOval, developers of Slydepay stated: “Money is a vital part of our day to day activities. We make transactions by the minute. No matter what you do for a career or earn for a living, we want to encourage you to do so like a BOSS. Be a BOSS in everything you do – post like a boss on facebook, watch your favourite football team matches like a boss and most importantly pay for all your transactions like a boss. This campaign is tailor-made to ignite the BOSS in You!”
He added that: “You are Boss in your own right. It does not matter what you do, where you work, what you wear, your tribe or what team you support. You are boss if you are in control of the decisions you take. A Boss is a leader and exudes ambition, vision and progress. I know you are one. You have to pay like the Boss that you are.”
Slydepay unveiled an official seal, known as the Boss Mark to authenticate the essence of paying like a boss. The seal is a mark that differentiates people who pay with Slydepay from the rest. The Boss Mark, conveys inner wealth, leadership, control, progress and ambition.
