With its ambition of becoming a tier one bank by 2021, Capital Bank has roped in more schools onto its fees collection platform to facilitate school fee payments.
The move means that the schools now have the opportunity to collect school fees from their students as well as parents and guardians through the 18 branches of Capital Bank in seven regions.
As many as about 16 schools have signed onto the Capital Bank fees collection platform as of July 2016.
They are University Of Ghana, Central University College, University Of Education, Winneba; African University College of Communications, Accra; Ghana Institute of Languages, the Presbyterian University College, Abetifi-Kwahu; and the Methodist University College.
The others are the Christian Service University College, Kumasi; Koforidua Polytechnic, Jackson Education Complex, Kumasi; Shield International School, Adenta-Accra; and Legacy Girls’ College in Akuse, Eastern Region.
The rest are Bright Brains International Academy in Roman Ridge, Accra; Ensign College of Public Health at Kpong in the Eastern Region, Republic Academy School and Elmhurst Independent Nursery & Primary at Dansoman in Accra.
With most schools re-opening for the new academic year in August, Capital Bank is, therefore, urging students, parents, and guardians to use its platform to settle their fees.
Commenting, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Capital Bank Fitzgerald Odonkor said Capital Bank had designed a fluid transactional banking platform that made payment of fees easy, simple, and convenient.
“Our focus is to continue to develop customer-focused solutions for various strategic segments and as such we will continue to roll out innovative solutions relentlessly,” he assured.
“Our collections platform offers end-to-end convenience for both the schools and their clients due to a high system integration which ensures that fees paid reflect instantly.”
Capital Bank presently has 18 branches spread across six regions in the country and still counting.
The branches are located at the ultra-modern head office at Spintex, AbosseyOkai, Tesano, Newtown, Makola, Ashaiman, Osu, Dansoman, Miotso, and Tema in the Greater Accra Region; Kasoa , Cape Coast and Winneba in the Central Region; Kumasi in the Ashanti Region; Koforidua in the Eastern Region; Takoradi in the Western Region; Tamale in the Northern Region and Techiman in the Brong Ahafo Region. Three new branches are expected to be rolled out this year to increase the number of branches to 21.
