The premier institute established for learning and research in Papua New Guinea and the Pacific launched its new upgraded official website www.pau.ac.pg on Wednesday 30th June, 2021.
During the launch, PAU Vice Chancellor Professor Roal Lozano said, “while the launch of the new website maybe small but significant, it is a landmark development for the university.”
Not only does the site have a modern look and feel, it is a one-stop shop for information on course programs, student life, campus activities and it now offers a new payment service for tuition and other fees – BSP Pay online payment service.
BSP Digital General Manager Nuni Kulu congratulated PAU on being the first university to integrate their website to the BSP Pay solution. She explained BSP Pay is an online payment gateway, which is accessible to all BSP customers to use their mobile phones to process payment directly from their bank account, with no dependency on a bankcard.
BSP Pay delivers real time payments to the university’s account, which is appealing to both students and the university. BSP Customers can log on to www.bsp.com.pg and use their unique BSP ID to opt in for the BSP Pay service.
PAU Deputy Vice Chancellor Professor Lalen Simeon thanked the PAU ICT team for incorporating different components into the new website including banking services like BSP Pay.
“Without BSP’s support and guidance, this wouldn’t happen. Fees have been an issue for us because most parents live in rural areas. If they can use their mobile phones and the new website to make payments that would be a bonus for us,” explained Professor Simeon.
As a registered BSP Mobile Merchant, the university also offers another alternative payment option for students and parents to pay for school fees and other services via BSP Mobile Banking *131# using their school code 50041.
BSP Pay allows any BSP account holder in PNG to make payments online securely and instantly, without the use of card details. This service can be used to pay for products and services on any registered BSP Pay merchant’s website.
