  • Define the roadmap and go-to-market plan for payment-related services and card innovations (e.g., tokenization, contactless).
  • Ensure alignment with Kolomoni’s digital wallet, onboarding, and transaction framework.

Partnerships & Platform Enablement:

  • Collaborate with the Channel Managers to deliver consistent and optimized card/payment experiences across Mobile, USSD, and Corporate platforms.

Payment Infrastructure Oversight:

  • Collaborate with the tech team to oversee the development and integration of APIs for card issuance, PIN management, card blocking, and transaction history.
  • Work with engineering to ensure reliability, scalability, and fraud protection of the payments stack.

User Experience & Support:

  • Drive card activation, funding, transaction success, and usage through thoughtful customer journeys and campaign interventions.
  • Collaborate with Customer Support and Ops to manage card-related escalations, chargebacks, and reconciliations.

Risk, Compliance, and Reconciliation:

  • Ensure full adherence to CBN regulations, PCI-DSS standards, card KYC, and anti-fraud policies.
  • Partner with Risk and Finance teams to ensure end-to-end reconciliation, float monitoring, and merchant settlements.

Additional Responsibilities:

  • Design and pilot informal economy card usage models (e.g., trader cards, market cashout cards) that support Oyo-based financial inclusion goals.
  • Work with the Business Transformation Manager – Oyo State to identify and embed Kolomoni cards within micro-branches, POS locations, and experience centers across underserved LGAs (e.g., Saki, Fiditi, Gbagi).
  • Launch targeted “Save to Card” and “POS Card” bundles for market women, artisans, and local cooperatives, integrating card issuance with agency savings campaigns.
  • Deploy local card activation agents in collaboration with field teams to drive regional card uptake and first-use behavior.
  • Enable transporters, cooperatives, and local retailers to accept Kolomoni cards as part of a broader merchant ecosystem.
  • Collaborate with CX and Marketing to create regional card loyalty programs (e.g., “Dugbe Card Rush,” “Oja-Oba Cashback Drive”).
  • Implement and track first-use education flows for Yoruba-speaking users on cards, PINs, and payment safety.
