We connect over 500 million mobile money wallets, 200 million bank accounts, and 400,000 agents in Nigeria. Our omnichannel network enables domestic and cross-border disbursements and collections, card issuing and processing, agency banking, and treasury services.
By linking mobile money operators, money transfer operators, banks, fintech companies, development organisations, and online and offline merchants to each other, we create a world of financial opportunities.
Our ‘network of networks’, backed by top-notch regulation and offices across Africa and others in the UK, US, and China, sets the stage for simplified access and growth. In 2023, Onafriq was honoured as the Fintech of the Year at the African Banker Awards, a testament to our impact and innovation in the financial sector.
We unlock access across the continent, driving one interconnected economy online and offline. Changing lives, communities, countries and our continent. Because where there’s access, there’s growth.

IntelleCash is the first initiative in India to apply the principles of business franchising to the microfinance sector through provision of a standardized microfinance solutions package for start-up entrepreneurs and microfinance institutions (MFIs), suitably customized to meet the contextual needs of its network partner microfinance institutions.
By offering standardized systems and processes for a start-up entrepreneur, IntelleCash aims to take microfinance further, faster. If the IntelleCash processes are correctly followed, its partner MFIs reach operational breakeven within twelve months of starting operations.
IntelleCash’s network partners range from start-up entrepreneurs to established institutions requiring the improved structure and support that IntelleCash can provide. In each case, IntelleCash provides the tools to standardize, consolidate and scale-up operations, while preserving the independence of each partner MFI.
