GUEST - Zanele Hadebe, Vice-President Strategic Marketing for Sasol Energy Marketing & Sales.
Sasol is rolling out a new way to tip petrol attendants at its fuel stations.
Sasol said that Tipped, a digital tipping system, will make it easier and more convenient for customers to tip petrol attendants straight from their smartphones.
Tipped is a digital tipping and payment system that uses a QR code and a digital wallet.
Customers scan a QR code their attendant presents to pay a tip straight to their digital wallet.
The system runs on the Masterpass payment rail, which supports mobile banking apps from major banks and digital wallets such as SnapScan, Zapper, Spot, Telkom Pay, and VodaPay.
