The government has approved the proposal to introduce the LANKAQR methodology for manual pay counters on the expressways managed by the Road Development Authority (RDA).
While announcing this at the the weekly cabinet media briefing today, the spokesman said the government had joined hands with all the licensed financial institutions in the endeavour of popularizing / encouraging the LANKAQR payment methodology with the objective of minimizing the use of money physically within Sri Lanka.
The drivers utilizing the expressways will be able to pay the due amount within 8 to 10 seconds by scanning the QR code through the LANKAQR active mobile payment app of any bank at the paying gate by indicating the relevant amount of money on their mobile phone.
