TAP Nigeria

TAP Nigeria: token administration platform.

An e-voucher scheme that uses the latest tablet and smartcard technology to change the way the Nigerian Government collects data and delivers benefits.

Consult Hyperion specified, developed and operated the Token Administration Platform (TAP) for the registration of customers in remote rural areas, for the purpose of delivery of e-vouchers to farmers, who were able to redeem them at TAP-enabled offline retailers for subsidies for fertiliser and other agricultural inputs.

During the 6-month pilot, we registered in excess of 500,000 farmers, and around 80% of the registered farmers used 1.2 million vouchers issued to them by the TAP service, with the total subsidy delivered in excess of US$19 million. At its peak, TAP was registering more than 10,000 farmers per day.
