Home / Who we work with
Banks & sponsor partners
You are being asked to put your permissions behind somebody. Here is who.
A sponsor relationship is a risk decision before it is a commercial one. This page is written for the person who has to defend it internally.
How we work
Partner-led by design, not by necessity.
Our products are built to run on licensed partners’ permissions and rails from day one. That is a deliberate architecture choice: it puts regulated activity where regulation already sits, and makes the division of responsibility legible to both sides.
Clear perimeter
We are explicit, in writing, about which activities sit with the partner institution and which sit with us. Ambiguity in that boundary is what makes these relationships fail later.
Regulator-aligned sequencing
The product roadmap is developed in step with the Central Bank of Nigeria’s framework and launched with licensed partners rather than ahead of them.
KYC and source of funds
Counterparty onboarding requires identification on both sides and source-of-funds evidence before value moves. This is a gate, not a preference.
Documented commercial terms
Our commercial relationships are papered — scope, exclusivity, non-circumvention and fee terms — before they operate, not after a dispute.
Diligence
What we will send you.
Ask, and you get the current pack rather than a brochure. Where something is planned rather than in place, it is labelled as planned.
Corporate
Incorporation and ownership detail, group structure as it stands, and the directors you would be dealing with.
Product & technical
Flow of funds, systems architecture, data handling, and the security posture appropriate to the stage we are at.
Commercial
Target segments, go-to-market sequencing, and the economics — with projections labelled as projections.
