The Cabinet's media center denied news reports about slapping additional fees on users of "Meeza" card online payment tool.

"Meeza" prepaid card is the first national e-payment card, considered as one of the main e-payment tools used by citizens to make governmental payments or carry out any other local financial transactions.

In a statement on Saturday 30/07/2022, the center said it communicated with the Finance Ministry, which dismissed the reports as "baseless."

The ministry said citizens only pay the cost of the service without any additional payments.

The media center, meanwhile, urged all media outlets to seek accuracy before publishing news so as to avoid perplexing public opinion.
