Amman, April 27, 2011: Today Royal Jordanian and Middle East Payment Services (MEPS) signed a partnership agreement that enables passengers to pay for their tickets at the RJ sales offices in Jordan and the outstations using the MasterCard.
RJ President/CEO Hussein Dabbas signed the agreement with Middle East Payment Services CEO Said Shuqom.
MEPS provided all RJ sales offices in the kingdom and many of those in international cities with modern electronic payment devices to facilitate payment procedures for passengers using the MasterCard.
Dabbas expressed satisfaction with the partnership with MEPS, one of the pioneering companies in this field committed to providing top-notch services for the commercial sector in general.
He pointed out that the agreement comes within Royal Jordanian plans to facilitate the work flow and automate travel arrangements, which include credit card payments. He said the service is going to save passengers time and effort.
Shuqom stressed that the agreement is an extension of former fruitful cooperation between MEPS and Royal Jordanian when it comes to using credit cards. He said that the credit card payment method will contribute to simplifying travel procedures for Royal Jordanian passengers through the use of the latest computerized equipment that ensures the needed protection to effect safe payment.
MEPS offers ticket payment services, but it also facilitates payment for other businesses, such as hotels, restaurants, travel and tourism agencies, car rental, hospitals and a variety of shops in Jordan, Syria and Palestine. MEPS is owned by a number of Jordanian banks.
