The Member of the tax on electronic transactions (E-levy) technical committee from the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA), Patrick Frimpong Danso has exposed the number one mistake that mobile money agents do that is illegal and also against the laws of Ghana.
According to Patrick Frimpong Danso, the mobile money agents are supposed to do transactions only on cash in and cash out whenever a customer comes to them but are not allowed to collect the customer’s money despite the amount and send it to a different person.
Patrick Frimpong Danso said the mobile money agents who receive money from customers to send to their relatives are illegal and against the laws of Ghana.
What the mobile money agents are supposed to do is to cash in the amount of money for the customers on their wallets for them to make that transaction, that is sending the money to their relatives and lastly, cashing out customers’ money when they want to withdraw.
Almost all the mobile money agents in Ghana have been receiving money from customers to send to their relatives but today, May 12, 2022, Patrick Frimpong Danso has made it clear that it is illegal and also against the laws of Ghana.
