This is a brief action plan. JUST for this week, but the objective is to complete the agreements with telecoms before the end of the year. Managers want to achieve anything before the end of this year (it was not exaclt a very productive year for them), we can capitalize on that.
our approach
- we are a multi-national company
- we specialize on moving money around the region
- we have our businesses in other countries (show figure!)
- we have local partners to facilitate that
- we are on the verge to become the next big payment processor
- our goal is to offer simple and smooth p2p transactions
| Task name | Description | Timelines / Owner | Hard deadlines |
|---|---|---|---|
| Integrating with Zain | The goal is to integrate with zain top up and bill payment. They are two distinct integrations | We will have meetings, presentations, and so. the technical part is the least difficult part. | send letter before End of this week |
| Integrating with Sudani | The goal is to integrate with Sudani top up and bill payment. They are two different systems | We will have meetings, presentations, and so. the technical part is the least difficult part. More commercially related | Send email before end of this week AND be ready for a meeting due next week |
| Business profile | Design and convert our powerpoint into a business profile. Profile will be later asked by sudani / zain. | Two days / mohamed | End of week |
| Amending our presentation | We want to present ourselves as an overseas company working with local partners to facilitate money ins and outs, and offer other services atop that. Presentations is a prerequisite for zain / sudani conversations | Two days / mohamed | End of week |
| EBS license | EBS license is a prerequisite for both zain and Sudani. We don’t necessarily be using it in practice, since the goal is to workaround ebs issues, but it’s literally the first thing they asked me about. | This week things will progress nicely | This week meetings and get concrete written email. Already reached for new ebs employees and sent them email |
| Solus guys | You know them too well. I know them even more. The deal and talks with PayMob has stopped and we can seize this opportunity to make use of what Solus has: the license. I spoke to Amjad, he doesn’t have any issues with us integrating with them. Abdu / Sam or Hamdi can further take on the conversation with Amjad and co. We don’t need a partnership with Solus; a MOU is more than enough. | Sam / Hamdi - mohamed | Next shareholders meeting |
| White-labeled banking app | Full POS dedicated to lure in banks to our network. The end goal is a workaround ebs issues and be ready when ebs is gone out of business, we still have access to the bank’s core systems and as a result we can offer our drop-in replacement to ebs. A direct result is to help us get good deals from the banks in terms of service implemented and other integrations we might see fit. | The same source code of tuti mPOS will be used. | tbd |
Let’s get these tasks done by this week.
