Quickteller Paypoint, a service under Interswitch
Financial Inclusion Services (IFIS), has continued to live up to its commitment to
empower Nigerians. Recently, the brand visited several locations in Lagos –
Agege, Alimosho, Ikorodu and Ajah to recruit more Quickteller Paypoint Agents
in a market activation drive targeted at cities across Nigeria. While four locations;
Agege, Alimosho, Ikorodu and Ajah have been activated, there will be other
activations in Abuja next week.
The objective of the market activation is to recruit new agents
who will be gainfully engaged and empowered to generate income, provide financial
services and grow to empower others subsequently. The activation also seeks to
increase digital payment touchpoints for Nigerians where they can easily carry
out regular financial transactions such as bill payment, funds transfer, cash deposits, cash
withdrawals, account opening, insurance and airtime recharge etc.
Speaking on the market activation, Olawale
Akanbi, Group Head, Growth Marketing, Merchant and Ecosystem at Interswitch stated
that the ongoing agent recruitment further demonstrates the company’s
commitment to enhance Nigeria’s access to financial services. He added that:
“Quickteller Paypoint is designed to empower Nigerians by creating income
generating opportunities for unemployed Nigerians and increase streams of
income for employed Nigerians thereby facilitating business in both the rural
and urban parts of Nigeria.
“This activation by Quickteller Paypoint is
looking to onboard new agents on the Quickteller Paypoint platform. By so
doing, we are not only empowering Nigerians to earn income, we are also
providing them a platform with which they are able to provide meaningful services
to their communities and eventually grow to employ and empower others.’’ he
said.
The recruited agents and other potential
agents are onboarded by registering on the Quickteller
Paypoint platform.
