The ESB was customized for the Government of Jordan to help enhance the user experience by facilitating the integration and collaboration of various cross-government e-services, allowing them to provide their services more efficiently and accurately. The ESB will also enable governmental institutions to share and exchange data, verify identification numbers, ensure data security and execute payments in a more convenient, safe and cost-effective manner. The unified infrastructure and central connection system will connect government institutions to provide a safe and flexible environment for e-services that will deliver more value and convenience to the end users.
The USAID/Jordan Tourism Development Project II (Siyaha) is working with a joint venture between Visa Jordan Card Services (VJCS) and Specialized Technical Services (STS) to implement this project and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to this effect was signed this morning among the three parties. The VJCS-STS joint venture has developed an electronic payment service for Jordan, and the Siyaha-led initiative to introduce this system to the tourism sector will enable businesses to access new markets and increase sales and promotion.
