According to a statement, it noted that the MSME collection and payment suite includes ALAT For Business, NQR, ALATPay, MyBusiness Card and the Wema POS machine.
“ALAT For Business [AFB] is the bank’s digital App made exclusively for business owners. While customers use ALAT to pay merchants, these merchants use AFB for bulk payments.
“On AFB, business owners can make payment to 5,000 beneficiaries in one transaction, optimise salary payments, invoice discounting, cash flow analysis, Form Q Initiation, and even FX transactions,” the statement said.
ALATPay on the other hand, is a payment gateway website that allows seamless payments with instant confirmation for both customers and business owners. Wema NQR provides “scan-to-pay” options for faster contactless payments via QR Code.
It stated that the Wema POS Machine allowed businesses to receive card, transfer, and alternative point-of-sale payments without hassles. MyBusinessCard, is a Business Card that offers business owners priority service in Branches, increased transaction limits, and supplementary cards.
The Wema Bank’s Divisional Head, Retail and SME, Ayodele Olojede, said the unique suite of solutions presented a unique opportunity to engender and accelerate digital and MSME empowerment in Nigeria.
“At Wema Bank, MSMEs hold a special place in our hearts.

These re-launched platforms guarantee business owners the flexibility to focus more on profit-adding business activities.
