Remita, a leading electronic payment platform, has commenced the sale of the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) ePINs to prospective candidates seeking admission into higher institutions across Nigeria.
As recently announced by the Joint Admission and
Matriculations Board (JAMB), the sale of ePINs for 2023 UTME registrations
commenced on Saturday, January 14, and ends on Tuesday, February 14, while the
Direct Entry (DE) forms will commence on Monday, February 20 and end Thursday
20 April, 2023.
Prospective candidates are to register with their National
Identification Number (NIN) by typing the word ‘NIN’, then space, adding their
11-digit NIN and sending as an SMS to 55019, e.g (NIN 00123456789). They would
receive an SMS with a 10-digit profile code via the phone number that should be
used to purchase their ePINs.
They are then to proceed to the Remita website
(remita.net/jamb) and follow the instructions. Once payment is completed, the
ePIN will be delivered to the candidate’s registered phone number and also
displayed on their Remita receipt.
Chinedu Alisa, Retail Manager at Remita, said agents,
schools, and other partnering organisations across Nigeria who resell JAMB
ePINs will be duly rewarded with the most competitive commissions per
transaction.
Candidates can make payments using any of the available
multiple payment options on Remita including debit or credit card, USSD,
eNaira, mobile wallet, bank account, bank transfer, internet banking or at any
Remita Agent location. They can also walk into any bank and request to buy
their ePINs with Remita.
Intending candidates can also pay through Remita on JAMB’s
e-facility portal. This indicates that the Remita platform is designed to
simplify the registration process and eliminate any inconvenience candidates
may face during their JAMB registration.
“Candidates of the 2023 UTME will enjoy a smooth
registration process when they buy their ePINs on the Remita platform, either
via the web or with their mobile phones.
“Agents stand a chance to make up to N200 per ePIN sold via
Remita, and will get a refund for unsold ePINs” he added.
Remita is a payment solution in Nigeria that empowers
individuals and businesses to do more, through simplified payments of all
kinds.
