Chezola Systems Launches the First Major Automobile Trading Site in West Africa

April 21, 2010

Cotonou, Benin – April 21, 2010 – Chezola Systems, an IT company based in Laval, has launched AutoParcs.com in Benin, the first major automobile trading site in West Africa. AutoParcs.com is a one-stop online marketplace for buying and selling of new .

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) April 21, 2010 --
This new online vehicle marketplace makes car buying and selling more accessible for both car buyers and sellers. Car dealers were once limited to buyers within a few kilometers of their showroom and buyers would have to travel long distances, as much as thousands of kilometers, to see cars they perhaps decided not to purchase. Now with the click of a mouse, buyers can sort through ads and find the perfect vehicle for them and sellers can save precious time by selling to buyers who are truly interested.

“There is no centralized system is West Africa to search for car and other vehicle listings, says Ismail Jolasun, Vice President at Chezola Systems Canada. “AutoParcs.com remedies this problem by providing a centralized point where thousands of card dealers can showcase their product and where millions of buyers and sellers can trade vehicles.”
This new system also protects buyers from fraud, by cutting out the middleman, who is not a car dealer. It provides a safe and easy way to purchase a vehicle by enabling buyers to inspect the vehicle prior to purchase and by providing five available payment methods, allowing dealers to post cars in real time.

A rating system lets buyers rate their transaction with sellers and buyers can speak directly to agents through a clearing agent network.

Mobile payment system to be launched soon in … Nigeria

By Heri Aug 30th 2007 in Mobile

Chezola Systems, an IT company based in Laval, has announced that it has developed a mobile payment system called Chezola Pay for GSM phones. They plan to make it avalaible in Nigeria later this year. Users load an account with a prepaid card, and can then pay small amounts directly to merchants with a SMS message.

The service in itself is not revolutionary as Chezola Systems described it. It’s common in Northern Europe and in some east-asian countries like Singapore or Japan, but it’s actually the first time that such a service is launched in Africa.

Nigeria is Africa’s biggest potential market, with a 133 million population. As you might know (… or not) , mobile phones adoption have outpaced fixed telephony, with urban africans getting a GSM phone in the same manner that getting a car is a “reflex” in North America. It tells a lot though that Chezola is choosing Nigeria as their testbed, instead of trying to launch the service in North America. Growth rates in mobile telecommunications are higher in Africa, with much more competition between providers and plans that are actually cheaper than what is avalaible in Canada.
