Our story

In 2018, a homegrown initiative took root in the heart of Papua New Guinea. NiuPay, conceived by a team deeply knowledgeable about the local market, embarked on a mission to enhance the delivery of public services through tailored digital solutions. This initiative was born from a recognition of the need for services that were not only effective but also resonant with the unique context of the South Pacific.

 

NiuPay’s journey began with a clear objective: to fill the gaps in digital service delivery within the public sector. Their first project in 2018 was the starting point of what would become a series of impactful solutions, each designed to address specific regional challenges. These solutions aimed to simplify complex processes, improve accessibility, and increase the efficiency of public services.

 

A significant step in NiuPay’s growth was the formation of a strategic partnership with Kina Bank in 2020. This collaboration with PNG’s leading digital bank was more than a commercial alliance; it was a shared commitment to fostering digital accessibility and inclusion throughout PNG. The partnership was a natural extension of both organisations’ vision for a digitally enabled future.

 

In 2021, NiuPay achieved a significant milestone by becoming the first organisation in PNG to be recognised as an AWS Well-Architected partner within the AWS Partner Network. This status was an acknowledgment of NiuPay’s dedication to delivering high-quality, secure, and efficient digital solutions.

 

Outside of PNG, NiuPay’s expertise was showcased in the Solomon Islands, where their technology assisted in the smooth processing of over 10,000 passengers for the Pacific Games 2023. This project highlighted NiuPay’s capability to manage large-scale operations and make a positive impact beyond its home country.

 

Back home in PNG, NiuPay has played a crucial role in improving various public services. This includes modernising payment system for the Immigration & Citizenship Services Authority and revamping the land management system for the Department of Lands and Physical Planning. The introduction of locally-issued card payments online and the operation of significant online revenue collection platforms are notable examples of NiuPay’s contribution to PNG’s digital infrastructure.

 

NiuPay’s story is one of local innovation and commitment to enhancing public sector services in the South Pacific. It’s a tale of a company that has grown from its local roots to make a substantial impact in the region, driven by a desire to create solutions that are not only technologically sound but also meaningful to the communities they serve.
