This initiative is part of the bank's ongoing commitment to promoting digital payments and fostering a cashless Bangladesh.

Through this service, we aim to encourage both customers and merchants to embrace secure and convenient digital payments, thereby contributing to Bangladesh's transition towards a cashless economy."
Through this initiative, Midland Bank seeks to integrate more retail merchants into the digital payment ecosystem and encourage broader adoption of QR-based transactions nationwide.
The bank is committed to expanding its Bangla QR merchant network and enhancing its digital payment services, aligning with Bangladesh Bank's efforts to cultivate an inclusive and cashless payment ecosystem.
