Payment Automation Solution for PMI

Streamlining Retailer Payouts with Transparency & Efficiency

Current payment systems face significant pain points, including limited real-time visibility that hampers timely decisions, manual payout processes leading to errors and delays, inefficient issue resolution causing retailer frustrations, and a lack of transparency that erodes trust. Additionally, fragmented databases create data inconsistencies and silos, ultimately resulting in overall delays, inconsistencies, and poor user experiences.

The Challenge: Current Pain Points

• Limited real-time payment visibility hinders timely decisions

• Manual payout processes increase errors and delays

• Inefficient issue resolution prolongs retailer frustrations

• Lack of transparency erodes trust in payment systems

• Fragmented databases cause data inconsistencies and silos

• These challenges result in delays, inconsistencies, and poor experiences

PMG Asia proposes a web-based payout management platform that features real-time dashboards for PMI and retailers, along with automated payouts and comprehensive audit trails. The solution includes a single centralized data repository built on secure open-source technologies such as PHP, MySQL, and web forms.

PMG Asia’s Proposed Solution

• Web-based payout management platform

• Real-time dashboards for PMI and retailers

• Automated payouts with audit trails

• Single centralized data repository

• Secure open-source tech: PHP/MySQL/Web Forms

The slide outlines a six-step timeline for seamless retailer onboarding, starting with Phase 1 where PMI shares an initial batch of 25,000 retailer records. Subsequent phases involve PMG validating the data, resolving any missing information by communicating gaps back to PMI, and finally uploading the data with unique vendor codes assigned followed by penny testing for verification.

Seamless Retailer Onboarding in 6 Steps

Phase 1: PMI Shares Retailer Data PMI provides initial batch of 25,000 retailer records to initiate onboarding. Phase 2: PMG Validates Data PMG performs comprehensive validation of the shared retailer information. Phase 3: Resolve Missing Information Identified gaps in data are communicated back to PMI for updates. Phase 4: Upload and Verify System Unique vendor codes assigned, data uploaded, and penny testing conducted for final verification.

The End-to-End Automated Payout Workflow timeline outlines the collaboration between PMI and PMG, starting on Day 0 when PMI shares the initial payout list for processing. It progresses through data verification and feedback on Days 1-2, payment processing and review on Days 3-4, invoice raising with RTGS updates on Day 5, and culminates in final payment release by PMI on Day 10.

End-to-End Automated Payout Workflow

Day 0: Payout List Shared PMI provides the initial payout list to PMG for processing. Day 1-2: Data Verification and Feedback PMG verifies data and sends back any missing information to PMI. Day 3-4: Payments Processed and Reviewed Verified payments are processed; failed payments shared with reasons. Day 5: Invoice Raised and Updates PMG raises invoice and provides RTGS payment updates. Day 10: Final Payment Released PMI releases the payment upon completion of the cycle.

The slide on Continuous Retailer Data Maintenance outlines a process for ongoing data accuracy, starting with weekly checks for updates and discrepancies, followed by assigning unique vendor codes to validated retailers and uploading the data to a centralized system. It concludes with penny testing for final confirmation and ensuring regular refreshes of retailer information to maintain reliability.
