Payzone was the first company to introduce an electronic pay as you go solution for the payment of domestic refuse and recycling payments. Households are issued with a swipe card which they bring into a Payzone Agent to make a payment. The card was first launched in conjunction with Kerry County Council in 2007 and has since been rolled out to other private waste operators and county councils throughout the country. 

With this card there is no longer a need to use tags on bins. There is no need for consumers to purchase, retailers to stock or for waste operators to produce tags.

Payzone also offers a bill payment service to waste operators where a bill is issued to a household and the customer can bring their bill to a local Payzone Agent and pay the amount they wish to pay.

Some of the waste operators Payzone can accept payments on behalf of are:

How it works?
Customers are issued with a card which credit can be added to at the Payzone terminal.  Customers can pay annual charges, half yearly charges, recycling or refuse charges. As a household’s bin is "lifted" by the waste operator, the credit on their account is decremented and can be recharged at any time. If a household’s account is not in credit, the bin will not be lifted.

In partnership with Payzone in 2008 Bord Gáis Networks launched a new Natural Gas Card top-up service. Each prepaid meter customer receives a smart card which they can use to purchase credit in a Payzone Agent which tops up their meter.

A core requirement of the solution provided by Payzone is the provision of a network with widespread nationwide coverage. Initially the roll out was in areas around Dublin and further phases have rolled out to Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Galway as well as plans to go to other towns nationwide.

Whenever a customer’s card is placed in the Payzone terminal meter reading data is also retrieved from the card and sent to Bord Gáis Networks by Payzone.

Driver Theory Test 

 

In 2008 a new eVoucher service was introduced in conjunction with the Road Safety Authority allowing candidates to purchase a voucher for cash in shops around the country using the Payzone network.

Clamping

    

In 2005 Payzone launched the cash payment of clamping fines in Payzone Agents. The launch of this service removed the need for motorists that did not have a credit card to have to attend an office to pay their fine. Motorists can pay their clamping fines in agents that are within walking distance of where they are clamped. Several of the agents are open 24 hours a day which makes it more convenient for customers.  Customers obtain a clamping voucher to the value of the clamp in one of Payzone’s Agents. Once a customer obtains a voucher they contact the DSPS and the authorisation is given for the clamp to be released.

Stored Value / Giftcard

Payzone provide retailers with an end-to-end stored value program that supports a variety of card based applications including giftcards, loyalty cards and other card-based marketing programs. Cost effective and flexible, Payzone’s card solutions enable any retailer, regardless of size, to implement a comprehensive stored value program quickly and easily.

Payzone’s stored value solutions offer retailers a whole range of additional benefits including:

• Reduced cost: Electronic gift cards are less expensive to manage than paper-base gift certificates as they reduce administration costs and fraud.
• Simplified returns procedure: Cash refunds and credit notes can be replaced by an electronic refund card which eliminates the loss of customers to other retailers.
• Effective Marketing Tool: Stored value/gift cards boost brand and corporate identity and they provide an excellent platform for partnerships, special events and seasonal opportunities. Unlike paper based vouchers, electronic cards can be displayed in prominent positions throughout the store as the card carries no inherent value until it is processed at the point of sale.
• Increased customer loyalty: The launch of promotional cards for store sales or special promotions can attract new customers and generally drive spending in the stores.
• Performance Tracking: Payzone’s reporting capabilities provide full visibility on issued & redeemed cards, outstanding liability and offers an easier reconciliation process.

Payzone’s flexible stored value platform can support a range of applications including:

• Gift cards
• Retailer returns/refunds
• Promotional card
• Loyalty programmes
• Savings Card
• Corporate/Staff Incentives.

The Payzone system incorporates the following value added services:

• Stand alone based terminal solution with an option to integrate with credit card transactions
• Back office gift card management system ensuring full transaction audit capability on customer queries and disputes
• Payzone back up and service team ensuring the management of the service
• Coordination of card design, manufacture and distribution
• The gift card is a magnetic stripe card, displayed on a carrier which folds neatly into a gift envelope
• High performance transaction processing capability that ensures data integrity and transaction authentication
• The card has a variety of functions from gift voucher, loyalty, savings and prepaid card
• Open cards can be re loaded.  This function may be used for ‘credit transactions’ or perhaps loyalty in the near future
• Balance enquiries can be obtained by swiping the card through the terminal.

We have implemented gift card/stored value solutions for hundreds of retailers, ranging from large high-street stores to franchise operations and local retailers. Working closely with our retail partners' right from card design and manufacture through to in-store training and customer service support, Payzone offers retailers an all-inclusive stored value solution which can be integrated into your existing EPOS system or delivered via a stand-alone terminal.
