The campaign aims to boost digital payments across the country and support the National Digital Roadmap.
As a key initiative of the rollout programme, the acceptance of contactless LANKAQR payments at Manual Toll Collection (MTC) gates on the expressway was facilitated by the CBSL and Nations Trust Bank through FriMi in partnership with the Road Development Authority (RDA).
