What was the challenge?
East Ayrshire Council had a contract in place with The Co-Operative bank to take payments for rent, council tax and invoices across the Post Office and PayPoint networks.
The Co-Operative bank advised that they would be withdrawing from this market but East Ayrshire council were keen to continue a cash payment service for their customers.
Multi-channel payments: Cash in-store
PayPoint’s cash in-store service offers an excellent alternative payment method for clients and their customers.
All payments are logged and daily transaction files are made available 365 days a year, allowing clients to continuously record payments.
Each payment is settled within four days and our competitive rates mean our clients can save substantial costs on their transaction fees.
Cash remains a critical payment option for many people and with 99.7% of the UK’s urban population living with one mile of a PayPoint store, there is always somewhere convenient to pay.
PayPoint services can be found in a number of stores across the UK including major brands such as Asda, Co-op, Spar and Costcutter.
