Safety and regulation
Kwik Pay protects activity with encrypted messaging and two linked checks on every transaction, namely the registered mobile number and a self activated secret PIN. You authorise payments and withdrawals from your own handset, and the system states that no other person can withdraw on your behalf. If the phone is lost, the funds remain protected because access still needs the secret number, which should never be shared.
