Fitz Vanessa R. Lim, Project Manager
Fitz joined I-Pay in September 2007. Her five-year experience in the contact center or the sunrise industry in the country puts her in the best position to lead and spearhead one of the company’s biggest leaps in terms of customer service—the Recharge plus Call Center. Along with that task, she mainly manages the company’s CHP projects, exercises a hands-on approach on team management and takes charge in the successful completion of a project’s goal and its objectives.

She credits her degree in Bachelor of Science in Computer Science as her ticket to advancing her as the company’s project manager for implementation of both local and US projects.

Joel R. Lat, Project Manager
For two years running since his entry to I-Pay in August 2007, Mr. Lat is the current project manager for Back Office.

Part of her day-to-day tasks is being a quality assurance officer and a change request manager.

Lou G. Carpio, Project Manager
With more than three years of experience in a managerial post in the contact center setting and has the ample training in people management, this makes Mr. Carpio a more qualified to project manager for i-Pay’s Philippine card programs. Prior to his promotion to be one of i-Pay’s project managers, he was also the first point of contact and the team leader for the company’s growing in-house contact center department. He is also one of the pioneer members of the said section.

Ms. Dela Cruz's contribution in advancing her former company's status was when it earned the VISA license and passing the PCI Compliance; maintaining a 0.016% fraud ratio that is one (1) fraud transaction for every 10,000 transactions because this means that the policies and procedures she developed and created served its purpose.
