Following the impetus created by the South African Reserve Bank’s Vision 2025, BankservAfrica and the Payments Association of South Africa, together with the South African payments industry, have been clarifying and defining a plausible path for transformation in South Africa. Beginning in 2017 with the joint BSA-PASA research programme that produced our 3-part study of modernization efforts world-wide (brought together under the heading “Modernising Payments Systems” and available on our web-site), BankservAfrica has taken a key role in providing research to the industry that it topical, pertinent, and applicable. In the last year, the South African payments industry has increasingly shifted its focus towards instant payments for the digitally connected economy, while addressing the persisting issue of financial inclusion in South Africa. Through extensive work done in the industry, co-ordinated and facilitated by the Payments Association, proxy and addressing services have been identified as a critical lever for adoption of instant or near-instant payments services. Proxy services allow payments to be successfully made using only an agreed identifier, such as mobile number, or a national identity number. By doing so, they remove much of the consumer friction currently associated with electronic payments.
