If you don\u2019t know how to do it, we train our people to teach you how to go about it,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>He has therefore called on the government to ensure sustainability of the system.<\/p>\n<p>Yeteso.com is a Ghanaian-owned online shopping market with a three-in-one package for its customers. They provide free classified service, E-Commerce, Live Auction and delivery services. Yeteso.com is determined to serve the needs of both sellers and buyers in internet marketing.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Boateng said they have intensified the verification exercise of individuals who want to use the portal for marketing by getting their detailed and authentic information to curb cyber fraud.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do verification, so for example if you are a seller or an individual who has an item and want to sell, once you put that item there, it will come to our back office, so when it comes to our back office we will then verify you, the forms that you fill come with your telephone number, so we will call you and then verify you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor instance we can ask of your voter\u2019s ID, Driver\u2019s license or passport. We use that to verify you. Once you go through the verification process, you then put your items on the platform. So anyone who comes on the platform and sees the item and wants to buy, should know he is buying from a genuine person,\u201d he assured.<\/p>\n<p>Boateng appealed to the banking industry to make the use of electronic cards more effective to encourage people to shop more online as part of moves to enhance a cashless economy.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 43 updated by: 43 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Business News of Saturday, 30 December 2017 Source: Starrfmonline.com 2017-12-30 Mr. Israel Boateng (middle) addressing the media during the launch of the online portal Some online marketing managers have lauded the government for initiating the digital address system.
