Judopay and Mastercard have announced that together they will enable The Pharmacy Centre to accept payments through Judopay’s digital solution.

Through the partnership, The Pharmacy Centre will be able to process secure payments using Judopay’s PaybyLink solution. The aim is to promote greater inclusion and flexibility during the ongoing Covid-19 outbreak, ensuring people have access to essentials.

Oliver Harris, Director at The Pharmacy Centre, said: “We believe that it’s imperative the general public, particularly the most vulnerable, get the essential medical supplies they need without risk of infection when making payments.

“This partnership enables pharmacies to provide services online and reach a wider audience, while also innovating and streamlining workflows.”

The announcement comes as the pandemic has made it difficult for those self-isolating to access medical supplies. Judopay and Mastercard hope that the collaboration will reduce the need for customers to physically visit pharmacies, helping to slow down the spread of infection.

Enabling access to medical essentials 

As part of the project, Judopay is providing a set-up service for The Pharmacy Centre to bring its solutions to the front line of prescription and medical distribution.
