The Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) has entered into a strategic partnership with the Punjab Cooperative Housing Society (PCHS) to implement the PayZen initiative within the housing society. This collaboration aims to modernize and digitize the payment systems, enhancing operational efficiency, transparency, and security for stakeholders.
The formal agreement was signed in Lahore by Syed Ijlal Hussain, Joint Director of PITB, and Mahar Muhammad Ishaq, Treasurer of PCHS. Key attendees at the ceremony included PITB Senior Program Manager Irfan Tahir, Joint Director Mudassir Paracha, and Program Officer Omer Akhtar, who were present to witness the signing.
Under the terms of the agreement, PayZen will be adopted as the primary platform for all types of financial transactions within PCHS, offering a user-friendly digital interface for residents and stakeholders. The initiative aims to reduce paperwork, improve the accuracy of financial records, and expedite payment processes. The seamless integration of PayZen into the society’s operations will ensure a smoother and more transparent payment experience for all parties involved.
PITB Chairman Faisal Yousaf highlighted the significance of the collaboration, stating, “With PayZen, not only do we simplify financial transactions, but we also promote a culture of transparency and convenience, which is essential for the modernization of administrative operations.”
This initiative is expected to enhance the overall experience for PCHS members by providing faster, more secure methods for paying dues, making it easier to track payments and reduce administrative bottlenecks. By leveraging PITB’s advanced technological infrastructure, the partnership sets a precedent for similar future collaborations aimed at promoting digital solutions across public and private sectors.
The adoption of PayZen at PCHS is seen as a major step in the province’s ongoing efforts to embrace digital technologies, making it more accessible and efficient for communities and businesses alike. This collaboration underscores the commitment to improving the quality of services available to society members while promoting financial inclusion and digital transformation.
