A new digital payment solution known as Pay Like a Local has been launched to improve tourism transactions in Arusha and across Tanzania. According to a report by Daily News, the service enables international tourists to make payments using mobile wallets without relying on cash or traditional bank cards.

The innovative payment system simplifies transactions at hotels, restaurants, and tourism attractions, making spending easier and more secure. By supporting cashless transactions, it enhances financial accessibility and contributes to a modern tourism experience. Tourism stakeholders believe this digital transformation will attract more international visitors and encourage increased economic activity within local businesses.

With tourism remaining a key pillar of the economy, digital payment solutions are expected to improve service delivery and strengthen Tanzania’s competitiveness as a global travel destination. The Pay Like a Local initiative aligns with efforts to modernize financial transactions and enhance convenience for travelers.
