Momo agents without Ghana Card linkage to be blocked on Feb 1 – Telecoms Chamber

The Ghana Chamber of Telecommunications has given Electronic Money Issuers (EMIs) until Wednesday, January 31, 2024, to link their accounts with the Ghana Card or Tax Identification Number (TIN).

According to the chamber, failure to comply will result in blocking their SIM cards.

A statement from the chamber said this comes after extensive discussions with the Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA).

While issuing a final warning, it added that relevant information regarding this exercise has been communicated directly to affected agents through various channels.
