As registrations for the 2026 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, and Direct Entry examinations continue across Nigeria, an integrated payments and digital commerce company, Interswitch, has launched accessible payment channels for the purchase of UTME ePINs for prospective candidates.Purchasing an ePIN is one of the earliest and most critical steps in the registration process for the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board, JAMB, examinations.Speaking on Interswitch’s role in supporting the registration process, Divisional Head, Growth Marketing (Merchants & Ecosystem), Olawale Akanbi, said the JAMB 2026 ePINs can now be purchased via Interswitch-enabled platforms, including the Quickteller mobile app and web platform, as well as the Interswitch Payment Gateway integrated into the official JAMB website.“These channels are designed to deliver fast, secure, and seamless payment experiences, with nationwide reach.”By providing secure, trusted, and widely accessible payment channels for JAMB ePIN purchases, we are helping candidates complete their registration with confidence and focus on preparing for their examinations.”As UTME registration timelines are time-sensitive, prospective candidates are encouraged to purchase their JAMB 2026 ePINs early via the Interswitch Payment Gateway, Quickteller or accredited agents across the nation to avoid last-minute congestion, delays, or payment failures.
