As registration opens for the 2026 UTME and Direct Entry examinations, Remita is yet again stepping out to make the journey into higher education a delight for millions of Nigerians.
For many candidates and their families, getting into tertiary education is about navigating systems, meeting timelines, and completing essential steps smoothly and on time. This year’s JAMB registration comes at a moment when those systems are more digital, more structured, and more data-driven than ever before. In that environment, ease of access is essential, and that is where Remita comes in.
This year, Remita is further simplifying how candidates can directly access their JAMB ePINs, making the process more intuitive, reliable, and inclusive. By reducing friction and strengthening digital connections between students, families, and institutions, Remita is helping to ensure that candidates can complete this important step with greater confidence and ease.
Remita is expanding access, convenience, and rewards across its digital platforms, empowering individuals and communities to directly transact securely, without relying on third-party intermediaries. Through its enhanced website and mobile app, parents and candidates can pay for JAMB services by themselves, maintain full visibility of their transaction records, obtain original transaction receipts, and earn rewards on every payment made.
Beyond individual candidates and their parents who can easily navigate digital platforms, Remita is also empowering trusted partners within the education ecosystem who have traditionally supported students on their education journey to do more. Schools, training institutions, and other public-minded organisations that support large groups of candidates are now supported by Remita to seamlessly process ePINs within their own environments to eliminate operational stress and protect candidates from exploitation.
These initiatives represent Remita’s continued commitment to its responsibility as a leader in facilitating financial inclusion, digital access, and greater economic participation across Nigeria’s evolving payments ecosystem. As a designated significant national payments and digital public infrastructure provider, Remita remains focused on connecting people, institutions, and aspirations through systems Nigerians at home and abroad can depend on.
Speaking on the initiative, Abayomi Oniku, Remita’s Executive Director, Business Development said: “Education is the greatest investment in Nigeria’s tomorrow, and Remita will continue to ensure that payments are a bridge – never a barrier – to opportunity.”
Alisa Chinedu, Remita’s Head of Digital Assets and Partnerships, Remita, added:
“This year, we are making the JAMB ePIN experience more intuitive and more human – through our AI assistant and stronger partnerships with trusted institutions and stakeholders that guide students toward a prosperous future.”
As millions of young Nigerians take this important step towards higher education, Remita is right there with them as a partner in progress. In every exam season and every academic transition, Remita remains dependable, forward-looking, and committed to expanding access. Because when education moves forward, Nigeria moves forward too.
