First City Monument Bank (FCMB) has partnered SystemSpecs to introduce a payroll solution designed to meet the yearnings of thousands of its SME customers seeking efficient, easy-to-use and affordable business tools to seamlessly operate their businesses.

The product tagged, “FCMB Payroll” comes with exciting features that enable SME owners to easily process payroll; pay employee salaries into commercial/micro-finance bank accounts or wallets and issue them regular pay slips. To all staff of any customer or registered SME, the solution also over-rides collateral requirements even without the traditional documentation to access loans from FCMB. The product enables these customers easily maintain historical personal and payment records of all employees, including their taxes, pensions and other possible transactions among other numerous benefits.

FCMB Payroll is delivered in partnership with SystemSpecs, one of Nigeria’s leading payroll solution and services companies with over 25 years’ experience of providing payroll solutions and services to public and private sector organisations in Nigeria and other African countries. The company is also the provider of Remita Payments Application, Payment Gateway and Payment Infrastructure.
