Johnston tells MHKs there are a number of difficulties
No progress has been made on getting more providers to offer credit cards on the Island, according to the enterprise minister.
It's thought there's only one company that will issue cards to new Manx customers at the moment.
Tim Johnston was quizzed in the House of Keys about whether he was working with the Post Office or Tesco to encourage them to offer the service.
He says there are a number of difficulties for potential providers:
Lone cyclist involved in Peel Road collision
Government 'unable' to comment on recount outcome
Manx Care forecasting £19.2million overspend
Manx students believe social media ban 'will have pros and cons'
