Ugur Schools Success Story

Uğur Schools digitalised its financial operations with Paynet's remote collection systems and payment diversity solutions.

We in Paynet started in the early 2000s with the idea of 'credit card collection in the dealer channel'. Today, we are a central bank-licensed financial technology company that digitalises the financial processes of more than 20,000 businesses in various sectors.

The organisation needed to move quickly while meeting its financial needs. Paynet's solutions fully met those needs. Melih İnce, Assistant General Manager for Financial Affairs at Uğur Schools, commented on the relationship as follows: 

We are happy to work together. Our financial operations have been securely digitalised..

Remote and secure payments with Paynet

Ugur Schools responded to the need for a fast connection and integration with Paynet, while also trying out different products such as mail order and collection with the QR code app in their educational institutions. The institution is also happy with the support it has received for collection via SMS and IVR, i.e., Interactive Voice Response system. Uğur Schools states that Paynet provides intuitive and secure payment solutions for parents.

Melih İnce, Uğur Schools' Assistant General Manager for Financial Affairs, explains the benefits of Paynet as follows:

Ugur Schools' need for fast connectivity and integration has been met perfectly. Paynet also offered us different products such as mail order and collection with its QR code app. We are pleased with the support we have received for SMS and IVR (Interactive Voice Response System) collection.

The COVID-19 pandemic was the beginning of a new era for us all. These remote payment transactions were very useful for parents and us alike. Parents were able to make the necessary payment using the link in an SMS sent to their phones. I would like to state that Paynet offers advantages in online collection.

I also believe that our parents trust Paynet. Credit card information is only stored on Paynet. We are going to receive support for introducing the QR code app in student contracts when the new school year begins. Parents will be able to see the payment screen when they scan the QR code.

Ugur Schools: 'Remote collection systems and increased payment diversity have benefited our organisation.

Uğur Schools wants to allocate its manpower and time in the financial area to growth and expanding its business volume, not to collections. With the remote collection systems and payment diversity solutions we offer, we have contributed to Uğur Schools and digitalised the institution's financial operations.

As a company, we receive fast, flexible, and dynamic responses in line with economic conditions. The increase in remote collection systems and payment diversity, in particular, have benefited our institution. In addition, as an organisation, we want to spend our energy on growth and expanding our business volume, not on collections. I think Paynet has been a positive support in this respect. We are happy to digitalise our financial operations on this path we continue to walk with more than half a century of experience and knowledge in education
