Payments for Good - Payment Choice Innovation for Those in Need
Ensuring the most vulnerable people in our communities get the funds they need in a way that works for them, is vital. Covid-19 changed the landscape for how payments for free school meals and then The Household Support Fund (HSF) were made, and innovation has been critical to the successful distribution of funds. Not everyone has access to bank accounts, wants to use plastic vouchers for retailers miles away, or get payments made into overdrawn accounts.
Join Paul Wickers, founder and CEO of Huggg at the Payments Innovation Day as he shares his unique journey of payments for good innovation. One that started with supplying voucher codes to families during Covid-19 as a replacement for school meals, moved to developing vouchers for HSF which provided choice for millions, and is now set to innovate the way energy vouchers are distributed to those in need.
