  • Irrespective of its importance to the customers and financial system, ethioPay interbank service is operating inefficiently. Since there are no studies conducted on this topic especially on ethioPay, this study has been conducted with an objective of identifying challenges and opportunities of ethioPay ATM from perspectives of interconnected banks and supervisors.
  • The study identified challenges such as inappropriate ATM location, low level of customer awareness, inefficient ATM management by the banks, frequent network failure, low level of interest and skills of the banks to use the service.

  • While other platforms are a one-size-fits-all, Ethiopay isn’t. We support the unique payment needs of Ethiopians including payments for school fees, telecom, utility bills and other needs that are close to your heart.

      Not all e-payment services contain multiple services, but EthioPay is one of the platforms that does. Not only does it help with utility bills, but it also facilitates school payments, etc.
  • aminej on 11 Feb 21
     
    Ethiopay offers a variety of services that individuals require on a daily basis so I consider it as really innovative to regroup all these services in one platform. Their customer target can be households who need to pay their utilities fees or students who need to pay their fees.
  • aminej on 12 Feb 21
     
    This is very innovative for the Ethiopian population since it will facilitate many things for them. Most of the popuation lives in rural areas where they can't access important services such as paying school fees or utilities because they are very far. Now, only through your phone you can pay all of these services from anywhere in the world.
