United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc and Unified Payment
Systems Limited are set to change the way Nigerians pay for items with the introduction of “PayAttitude” 
 
PayAttitude is a fast, seamless, and contactless
payment device.
It works based on Near
Field Communication (NFC) technology. It comes as an adhesive tag that is attached to the mobile phones of customers which automatically turns the mobile phone into a payment device that can be used to pay for items at at any PayAttitude enabled POS terminal in any shop. 
 
Making payments with PayAttitude is as
easy as tapping the phone against a PoS terminal. Highly convenient for retail
transactions, it perfectly suits the lifestyle of mobile phone users.
  “The tag can be
obtained from designated UBA business
offices.  We have the PayAttitude Debit and PayAttitude Prepaid depending
on a customer’s preference” explained Yinka Adedeji, UBA’s Divisional Head for e-Banking explains that
A major benefit of the new payment
solution is that all payments are always 100% successful  with or without
network connectivity, thereby eliminating the issue of “declined” payments on
POS terminals. 
 
It thus guarantees subscribers the confidence and comfort of
always being able to pay for goods and services at merchant locations at all
times notwithstanding network challenges.
This innovative payment solution is
coming after UBA recently upgraded its IT system to a more efficient, secure
and faster banking platform  enhancing the speed of the bank’s e-platforms
including; internet banking, mobile banking and also greatly improving the
uptime and availability of its e-Channels like the POS machines and ATMs.
The new payment solution
“PayAttitude” synchs perfectly with the bank’s upgraded banking platform
delivering superior banking experience to UBA customers across Africa as well
as with advanced security and compliance framework which will result in
significant improvement in productivity and improved response to security and
regulatory issues.

 

As
a highly diversified financial services provider and leading provider of
innovative e-banking solutions across Africa, UBA is one of the largest
financial institutions in Africa, with offices in New York, London and Paris. 
 
The UBA Group has strong retail penetration across the African continent with
more than 8 million customers. These customers enjoy a bouquet of products and
services tailored to meet their different financial needs backed by cutting
edge technology that offers secured and convenient real-time online banking
services.
