A leading financial institution in Nigeria, OPay, has partnered with AfriGO Card powered by Afrigopay Financial Services Limited, a subsidiary of Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System, to enhance the availability of digital payment services to Nigerians.

Opay said that the partnership with AfriGO will facilitate rapid scaling whilst significantly ensuring that secure and convenient payment solutions are available across Nigeria.

“Our partnership with AfriGO aligns perfectly with our goal of simplifying financial services for every Nigerian. The OPay/AfriGO card is not just a product; it’s a powerful tool that will enable us to reach more Nigerians, particularly those who have been underserved by traditional banking services.
