Operations Solutions

The operations solutions team manages data messaging to churn out the required information for day-to-day planning and management of operations. The principals may either utilise some of the pre-designed reports by Fino Paytech, or ask for customised reports.

 

Field Force Monitoring System

Effective field force management is the most critical and toughest part of managing branchless banking operations. Field Force Monitoring Systems help manage different aspects of the distribution channel, thereby achieving process rigour and field discipline.



By virtue of the fact that these systems can be shared by different entities, the systems turn out to be relatively cost-effective and much simpler.

Transactions Processing System

This system allows both online and offline transactions, depending on the business need and the availability of infrastructure. The system has been designed to work well even in harsh and remote locations that have poor connectivity and power supply.

 

The customer can transact through a POT (point of transaction), ATM, Micro Deposit Machine (MDM), Mobile and the PC POT. The POT settles its transactions through the NAC, while the ATM, MDM, Mobile and the PC POS (point of sale) settle through the IP cloud. The transactions are then sent to the in-house developed switch, which then pushes these either to the Fino Paytech CBS or to a third party host.
