iSettle offers a comprehensive platform to integrate Nigeria’s leading payment methods, including bank transfers, mobile wallets, and card payments, ensuring secure and efficient transactions.
Nigeria has one of the largest and fastest-growing digital payment ecosystems in Africa, with over 100 million active bank accounts. Mobile payment methods, including USSD codes and mobile wallets, are highly popular, driven by smartphone penetration and financial inclusion efforts. In 2023, the Central Bank of Nigeria reported a 30% increase in mobile payment transactions, reflecting a shift towards digital payments. Despite the growing adoption of digital solutions, cash remains dominant in many parts of Nigeria, especially in rural areas. The Central Bank of Nigeria's push for a cashless economy is gradually gaining traction, with e-commerce and mobile banking continuing to rise, particularly in urban centers like Lagos and Abuja. Payment solutions like bank transfers and mobile wallets are critical for businesses targeting both digital and cash-preferred customers.
