One Year. One Vision. One Unshakable Belief in Trade.

Transactpay NEXT wasn’t just an event. It was a statement — a bold declaration that Nigeria’s future runs on the power of small businesses, and we’re here to build the rails.

On July 4th, 2025, we marked one year since we began processing payments through Transactpay. In that time, we’ve powered thousands of entrepreneurs across Nigeria, helped businesses move money with less friction, and designed tools tailored for the hustle of the African entrepreneur.

But this past year wasn’t just about transactions. It was about transformation.

A Room Full of Believers

At Federal Palace Hotel, Lagos, we welcomed an intimate group of regulators, journalists, partners, and pioneers. To celebrate our milestone and also to witness what’s NEXT.

We reflected on what we’ve done. We showed what we’re becoming.

From the opening reel that captured the story of our first year — from product launches to customer support milestones — to the unveiling of new tools and our boldest initiative yet, the room carried a quiet electricity.

People weren’t just clapping. They were nodding. Leaning in. Believing.

A Different Kind of Mission

Most fintechs focus on payments.
We focus on trade.

Because payments are a tool. But trade is the point.

Trade is how people survive, grow, and move their communities forward. It’s the woman selling roasted corn, the tailor sewing under candlelight, the vendor juggling DMs, deliveries, and daily life.

We’re not just here to make it easier for money to move — we’re here to help people move forward.

What We Launched

At Transactpay NEXT, two big ideas came to life:

🥁 The Transactpay Payment Apron

A first-of-its-kind in Nigeria.
Hands-free. Battery-free. Friction-free digital payments.

An apron any vendor can wear — displaying their account number and QR code. No device. No app. No electricity required.

It’s not flashy. It’s functional.
And it’s exactly what millions of traders need.

🚀 The Transactpay Thrive Grant

₦20 million for 20 Nigerian entrepreneurs.
₦1 million each. No strings. Just belief.

Because when you power the people building something from nothing, you power a nation.

We’re not waiting for perfect pitches.
We’re inviting the stories and dreams that deserve support.

Why This Matters

Every great movement begins with belief.
Belief that small things become big things.
Belief that tools, not talk, change the world.

Transactpay NEXT was our promise to keep building for real people, solving real problems, in real time.

It’s not just about growth metrics.
It’s about impact. It’s about momentum.
It’s about you — powered by us.

What’s Next?

We’re only getting started.

If you’re building something that helps others grow — a business, a platform, a movement — we want to power you. Whether it’s through tools like Transactpay Checkout, Tribe, or the Catalog… or through something as humble as an Apron that makes it easier to collect payments.

Because your story matters.
And our mission is simple:
