Moroccan payments company NAPS has launched the NAPS Dashboard, a new platform that lets businesses manage all their payments in one place. The company says it is the first locally built system in Morocco to do this.
NAPS said the launch is a major step forward for payment technology in the country. Deputy general manager Mohamed Rziguen described it as a turning point for electronic payments.
Until now, many businesses had to use separate systems to track different types of payments. NAPS says the new dashboard brings everything together in a single interface.
It includes card terminals in shops, mobile wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay, online payments, payment links sent by email or WhatsApp, and automated payments from kiosks and vending machines.
The company says the platform has features designed for several industries.
Hotels can upload documents to deal with disputed payments or no-show bookings. Retail chains can compare sales between branches in real time and automatically sync payments with accounting software such as SAP and Sage. Car rental firms can manage deposits centrally, so customers can pick up a car in one city and return it in another.
Restaurants can set suggested tip amounts and automatically share tips with staff. Lawyers and consultants can send payment links to clients without needing a website.
The launch comes as Morocco pushes to reduce the use of cash through its national financial inclusion strategy. Mobile wallets have grown quickly since the MarocPay system was introduced, but businesses often struggled to manage different payment systems.
NAPS says its dashboard solves this by showing wallet and card payments in the same reports.
The company says developing the technology in Morocco reduces reliance on foreign payment providers. The platform offers local customer support, works directly with Moroccan banking rules and the dirham, and keeps financial data in line with national privacy laws.
The dashboard includes a tool called NAPS Analytics, which helps businesses study sales and customer behaviour. Over time, anonymised data could help track spending trends across the country and support better business decisions.
