Can you give us an overview of JAM-Forte Technologies and the inspiration behind its
founding in 2018?

JAM-Forte Technologies was established in 2018 as a dynamic software development company
based in Abuja, Nigeria. We provide a range of software solutions and services such as web and
mobile application development, software testing, IT consulting, product design and
development, hardware systems installation, hardware procurement, and software
development training. Our inspiration for founding the company was to bridge the
technological gap by providing innovative and affordable software solutions that address realworld challenges, for all scales of businesses, government and individuals.. Our team recognized
the potential to harness technology to drive positive change across various industries, and this
vision continues to guide our endeavors.

What motivated your team to create Paysequr, a fintech product that focuses on
revolutionizing transactions between shoppers and merchants?

The motivation behind creating Paysequr stemmed from the desire to reshape the way
transactions are conducted in the digital age, especially with the wide adoption of ecommerce
in Africa, and the downside that comes with shopping online such as scam, fraud, and sale of
low quality products for the same price as the original. Our team saw an opportunity to address
the trust deficit in online shopping and payments. We aimed to empower both consumers and
merchants by introducing a secure and transparent escrow payment system that ensures fair
transactions and boosts confidence in the online shopping experience.

Could you explain how Paysequr’s escrow service works and how it aims to enhance the
shopping experience for both consumers and merchants?

Paysequr’s escrow service acts as a neutral intermediary in transactions. When a shopper wants
to makes a purchase for an item, he sends a buy request to the merchant through the merchant
unique ID and a transaction is created upon confirmation from the merchant, then the shopper
(buyer) makes payment to the merchant which is held securely in escrow. Once the consumer
receives the product and confirms its quality, the payment is released to the merchant. This
process enhances the shopping experience by fostering trust, reducing disputes, and ensuring
that shoppers receive what they pay for. Merchants also benefit from assured payments upon
successful delivery.

What challenges or pain points in the traditional payment process led to the development
of Paysequr’s unique escrow service?

The traditional payment process often lacked transparency and left both consumers and
merchants vulnerable to fraud and disputes. Paysequr’s escrow service was designed to
mitigate these challenges by providing a secure and accountable payment process. This
innovation addresses issues of trust, delayed payments, and potential dissatisfaction, thus
enhancing the overall transaction experience.

How does Paysequr ensure a secure and trustworthy platform for both shoppers and
merchants to transact using the escrow service?

Paysequr employs robust security protocols and encryption measures to safeguard sensitive
information. Our platform verifies merchants and ensures compliance with industry standards
and KYC requirement by the Central Bank of Nigeria. Additionally, our escrow service is designed
to prevent unauthorized access to funds, and our transparent transaction tracking system
provides visibility into the process for both shoppers and merchants. Lastly, all transactions are
processed through our partner bank (VFD Microfinance bank), so all customers are issued a
unique VFD bank account number upon completing their KYC Verification.

Can you walk us through the step-by-step process of how a typical transaction occurs
using Paysequr’s escrow service?

A typical transaction on Paysequr involves:

  • The consumer send a payment request to a merchant and makes the payment.
  • Paysequr holds the payment securely in escrow.
  • The merchant ships the product to the consumer through our logistics partner (GIG
    Logistics)
  • Once the consumer receives and verifies the product’s quality, they confirm the transaction.
  • Paysequr releases the payment to the merchant.

In what ways does Paysequr contribute to reducing instances of fraud and ensuring that
shoppers receive the products they ordered?

Paysequr’s escrow service reduces fraud by ensuring that funds are held securely until the
shopper confirms the product’s quality. This prevents instances where consumers pay but don’t
receive products as described. Merchants also benefit from verified payments, reducing the risk
of chargebacks.

What types of industries or businesses do you envision benefiting the most from
integrating Paysequr’s escrow service into their payment processes?

Paysequr’s escrow service is versatile and can benefit a wide range of industries including ecommerce, electronics, fashion, and more. Any industry where trust and transparent
transactions are paramount can benefit from our solution.

How does Paysequr handle disputes that may arise between shoppers and merchants

escrow can be returned to the consumer per our terms and conditions.

What technologies or strategies does Paysequr employ to ensure seamless and efficient
payment processing and product verification?
