Cotton Collection recently partnered with the popular mobile wallet app FriMi powered by

Nation’s Trust Bank, becoming the first fashion retailer in the country to take its first step towards a cashless future.

The secret to Cotton Collection and in particular their own label COCO’s success has largely been driven by its ability to keep up with rapidly changing fashion trends and showcase them in its collections. From the very beginning, they found a significant gap in the market that few clothing brands had effectively addressed. This was to keep pace with latest fashion trends, but offer clothing collections that are a combination of high quality and yet, are affordable.

The brand keeps a close watch on how fashion is changing and evolving every day across the world and creates responsible passion for fashion amongst a broad spectrum of consumers, spread across different cultures and age groups. They applied this effective strategy to consumer retail trends and with cash falling out of fashion partnered with FriMi to offer their customers a convenient and seamless, shopping experience.

Digital payments are increasingly replacing cash payments for various reasons, but global studies indicate that convenience is the key factor for this. From the comfort of the home or in the busy atmosphere of an office it can take just a few minutes to make a digital payment, check your e-statement and supervise transactions. For many people, phones are already replacing their wallets. It also seems safer than walking around with a bulging wallet full of cash and it makes store checkouts that much faster. Through digital payment, it is easier to track one’s spending than when using cash. At the end of the month, there will certainly be no hidden surprises as to where and when you spent your money.
