It’s one of many websites offering online payments for utilities that have arisen in the past few years. With VTPass, you no longer have to visit physical service centres to settle these bills. You can do all of this on your phone or laptop, wherever you are. VTPass was founded by Olanrewaju Ogunya who is currently the company’s CEO. In the years since its launch, it has formed partnerships with other tech-driven solutions providers and added several utility suppliers to the list of companies for which it supports bill payments. Visitors to the VTPass website can top up their mobile airtime on it. They may purchase airtime for any of the four major telecoms service providers in Nigeria—MTN, Airtel, Globacom, and 9Mobile. They can also buy internet data from the platform for any of these networks and other ISPs. Cable TV subscription payments for the most widely used cable services are available as well. These may be renewed using a debit card or via bank transfer. Security steps, including the use of verification codes, reduce the chances of an unauthorized transaction taking place.
