USAID PARTNERSHIP WITH IMO STATE WATER AND SEWERAGE CORPORATION INTRODUCES INTERSWITCH PAYMENT GATEWAY SYSTEM

January 12, 2022 admin Comments Off

The 1st Management Staff Meeting 2022 of the Imo State Water and Sewerage Corporation held on the 4th January 2022 introduced a new system which will be used in the corporation.

The meeting was presided over by the MD/CEO Engr. Emeka Ugoanyawu FNSE FNIWE NPOM FOSHA KSJI with the attendance of all Heads of Departments as well as a representative of INTERSWITCH Mr. Ainoje Ohio (Team Lead East)

The meeting agenda centered around ways to improve the Corporation through dynamism and imploring new strategies and systems to help achieve corporation’s goals and objectives.

According to the MD/CEO ISWSC, this dynamism is what has brought about the introduction of INTERSWITCH PAYMENT GATEWAY SYSTEM to the Imo State Water and Sewerage Corporation by the USAID E-WASH.

Speaking from the perspective of Mr. Ainoje Ohio the Team Lead East of INTERSWITCH, he said Interswitch’s broad network and robust payments platform have been instrumental to the development of the Nigerian payments ecosystem and provide Interswitch with credibility to expand across Africa.

Today, Interswitch is a leading player with critical mass in Africa’s rapidly developing financial ecosystem and is active across the payments value chain, providing a full suite of omni-channel payment solutions.

The USAID contracted TAWOL TECHNOLOGIES who is also the consultant for the ERP and will now be using Interswitch payment gateway system through engaging the ERP.

The Interswitch payment gateway system will be used for Revenue collection and Improve Accounting for Imo State Water and Sewerage Corporation in line with the international best practices.

There are 3 payment gateways which includes:

1. Paydirect

2. POS

3. Quick Teller

In line with their strategies, a help portal will be created for the corporation, and POS machines will be provided. Customers will have to start paying their bills through these gateways and sensitization will be carried out to this effect.

Furthermore, through the Interswitch payment gateway system, our customers can pay through any commercial bank, and depending on the gateway of payment used, whether quick Teller or paydirect, charges will either be burn by the customer or the corporation respectively.

The system is an “App”, and all you need to do is to download it.

Also note that trainings will be conducted for selected staff that will be handling the reporting system for the corporation as the ERP will also be updated to accommodate zones that have not been included in the ERP.

The MD/CEO Engr Emeka Ugoanyawu FNSE FNIWE NPOM FOSHA KSJI thanked His Excellency Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma who has been instrumental to the changes attributed to the Imo State Water and Sewerage Corporation, and his interest to reposition the WASH sector of Imo State.

He also thanked our USAID E-WASH partners for their support at achieving all milestones thus far.
