According to him, many people view payment platforms simply as transaction channels, but their impact often extends far beyond financial exchanges.

“When people think about payment platforms, they often think about transactions. But behind many transactions are life-changing moments,” he said.

Alisa noted that a WAEC registration PIN could represent a pathway to higher education, economic advancement, and a brighter future for many young Nigerians.

He explained that Remita's payment infrastructure currently supports candidates across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, helping students from both urban and underserved communities gain easier access to examination registration.

The company said candidates can obtain their WAEC/GCE registration ePINs through its online platforms, mobile application, and authorised partner channels nationwide, reducing the need for long queues and multiple payment hurdles.

Alisa stressed that expanding access to educational processes is becoming increasingly important as countries seek to build competitive and innovation-driven economies.

“In emerging economies, one of the greatest barriers to opportunity is often not talent, but access,” he said, adding that simpler and more inclusive payment systems help keep aspirations alive and create pathways for success.
