The payment according to a statement yesterday signed by its Political and Press & Public Affairs Officer, Mr. Rob Fitzpatrick can be made using a verve debit card, Visa, MasterCard credit, debit cards or the e-wallet PAGA. The statement read: “The move to online application and payments will deliver a streamlined application process and is consistent with a wider global trend to online transactions and payments.
“It meets the requirements of the UK Government’s Digital by Default initiative and will help cut costs in the management of the visas operation, which in turn helps to keep visa fees down.
“It will also be a safer system for both customers and staff as it reduces the risk associated with handling large amounts of cash during the visa application process,” the statement further said.
