CBN to meet banks, telcos on PoS withdrawal charges

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will meet with deposit money banks (DMBs), mobile money operators, and telecommunications companies in the coming days to address the excess withdrawal charges by Point of Sale (PoS) operators in the country.

The CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, stated this while briefing the media on the redesigned naira on Saturday in Lagos.

Following the scarcity of the new naira notes, PoS operators are now charging 10 percent of the amount a customer withdraws on the platform.
