Describe what your company does in 50 characters or less.

Pan-African digital bank for Africa's 50m businesses

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a multi-currency digital bank focused on businesses in Africa. Our platform lets retail outlets, hospitality businesses, and startups pay vendors, send cross-border payments, and access growth capital without the typical banking friction on the continent.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Lagos, Nigeria, and the company is based here. Post-YC, we plan to keep the company headquartered in Lagos to stay close to our primary customers and market.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Lagos is where most of our early customers and team are based. Being on the ground in Nigeria matters because banking regulation, payments infrastructure, and customer needs vary widely across Africa. We want to stay connected to the local ecosystem and build solutions tailored for Africa's unique challenges.
