Dubai: Dubai Trade, Dubai World's trade facilitation department and provider of online trade services, has successful deployed additional DP World eServices that use the Rosoom platform to enable online payments for port charges.
The new service will facilitate easier and faster container movements at DP World's flagship Jebel Ali Port.
Dubai Trade, which brings together a vast majority of companies that interact with Dubai's ports, customs and the free zone for the purpose of trade into a single community, had launched Rosoom in May 2008.
The Rosoom platform has already proved to be a huge success with the trading community with over 14,000 successful payment transactions to date amounting to over Dh11.7 million.
Mahmood Al Bastaki, Director of Dubai Trade, said that the deployment of the new payment services from DP World is the result of a concerted effort by a team of experts to aid customers.
"We are proud of DP World's keen and committed interest of transforming all the manual services to electronic services. With this latest addition of payment services, importers and exporters can now be relieved from the burden of physically visiting the counters to fulfil their dues. We are closely working with DP World to integrate all their payable services into our centralized payment gateway, Rosoom".
The newly launched eServices from DP World will facilitate the trading community to make online payment of port charges for less than Container Load cargo un-stuffed at the Jebel Ali Port Container Freight Station and private CFS locations.
