Market
Paymatic Solution caters for Business or Corporate who has high Cheque volume usage.
Problem or Opportunity
The current system cost RM 6.80 to process one manual cheque and the total cost to the Banking Industry is RM 680 Million yearly and this is based on Inter-Bank cheque transaction only and it takes 2 days to process one cheque.
Whereas Paymatic Solution can process one cheque at the cost of RM 0.50 in almost ‘Real Time’. With only 20% adoption rate it will generate savings of RM326 Million for the Banks and SME’s yearly and in five years it can generate a massive savings of RM1.6 Billion. At same time this will accelerate the full-fledged e-Payment adoption rate among the SME’s and the potential take up rate can increase from 20% to 40%.
Paymatic Solution also will stop approximately 20 million people from going to and from the bank to deposit the cheque yearly, the increase in productivity, efficiency and spill over benefit are unquantifiable.
The estimated market size in Malaysian is RM680 Million, whereas in United States it is multi-billion dollar (USD) industry and our initial target is to capture fraction of it with our IP.
Solution (product or service)
One of the greatest challenges for Malaysia in achieving full-fledged e-Payment agenda is the strong resistances from SME’s, which are mainly due their “Customary” requirement that tend to continue using manual cheque for internal documentation, post-dating and multiple signatory. The introduction of Paymatic Solution will be a game changer which will able to blend and fulfill the requirements of SME’s of their “Customary” practices and the need to forge ahead with nation’s e-Payment agenda.
Paymatic Solution will be by far the leading FinTech solution providing fully electronic cheque issuance and depository system as compared to even the best practices already in place at advanced nations such as U.S. and U.K. which only removes the usage of Cheque Depositing Machine (CDM) in this regard.
Paymatic Solution allows SME’s to print their own cheque just like how large corporation print in pre-printed cheque paper. The salient feature of Paymatic Solution is, it prints on blank A4 size paper with QR Code at SME's premises by login to current SME Internet Banking platform.
Once authorized signatory sign the cheque manually, digitally or combination of both it will be deposited via smart phone. This cheque will be processed almost in Real-Time, this will be the most efficient and lowest in cost of cheque processing. The cheque will be stored digitally and completely eliminates storage and logistic cost that normally arise from manual paper cheque processing.
