Ecocash is enmeshed in the very fabric of the Zimbabwean payment systems. It’s a big deal and when it stops working the whole system usually crumbles. Sure we have ZIMSWITCH, Telecash and OneMoney but Ecocash is the king of electronic transactions.

We are reminded of this as we get to the weekend. Steward Bank took occasion to remind its customers that Ecocash related banking transactions will be down for their bank and other banks. So once the scheduled big upgrade starts, you won’t be able to do wallet to bank or bank to wallet transactions.

Notice:
