Digital payment firm unveils travel platform
In a bid to develop technology solutions that connect individuals, businesses, and communities across Africa, Quickteller, the consumer digital lifestyle and payments platform powered by Interswitch, has launched its Quickteller Transport.
According to the company, it was designed to enrich the commuters’ travel experience by enabling users to easily search and book inter-state trips from multiple travel operators across Nigeria. Users will also be able to filter their search to specific or preferred operators, compare fares based on criteria such as vehicle type, departure point and time, as well as access specialised functions provided by transport operators, including seat selection and preferred pick-up location option, all at their convenience.
Speaking at the launch, MD, Interswitch Industry Ecosystems Division, Chinyere Don-Okhuofu, said that the Quickteller Transport Service was another step in the company’s continued commitment to providing its customers with convenient access to lifestyle and payment services.
Don-Okhuofu noted that “transportation is a necessary aspect of human life, enabling social and economic interactions. In keeping with our culture of driving innovation and positively impacting consumer lifestyle in society, we developed our Quickteller Transport service to provide added travel booking and payment convenience to our over 5 million customers.
Built as a multimodal offering, we will be rolling it out to include other travel and transportation modes such as trains and ferries, working with operators across Nigeria.”
Don-Okhuofu stated that customers could be assured of a commitment to providing an excellent experience using Quickteller to access all their lifestyle and payment needs.
