At FriMi, we pride ourselves on redefining the boundaries of
the financial experience and empowering individuals who think different. In a
delightful twist that marries tradition with modern convenience, we've
revolutionized the age-old Sri Lankan tradition of wedding gifting.
We're talking about the QR Gifting Experience. Sri Lankan
weddings are famous for their big celebrations and, of course, guests gifting
cold, hard cash in envelopes. When fintech enthusiast & fellow FriMian Adheesha
Dharmakeerthi reached us with his wonderful idea of QR gifting at his wedding,
we were thrilled! We saw this as an
opportunity to enhance this old tradition of wedding gifting and make it
effortlessly delightful for all.
For the first time in Sri Lanka, we introduced a
game-changer - QR codes that let guests use any of their LANKAQR payment
enabled apps on their smartphones to gift the happy couple. Here's how it
worked:
This innovation brought unprecedented benefits, including
convenience, transparency, personalization, safety, and a reduced environmental
footprint. The response has been heartwarming, and we're honored to be part of
preserving tradition while embracing the future.
It was our pleasure helping Sayari and Adheesha, to give
this transformative experience for the first time in a Sri Lankan wedding, on
their big day -27.01.2023. Their wedding was a testament to how our technology
can enhance the timeless tradition of giving blessings to the newlyweds. With
QR codes in hand, guests personalized their gifts, added heartfelt messages,
and watched as their love was delivered directly to the couple.
We wish Sayari and Adheesha, Sri Lanka's first couple to accept gifts digitally, a very happy wedded life!
