Moniepoint Inc has partnered with Afrigopay Financial Services Limited, a subsidiary of the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System to distribute five million AfriGO cards to Nigerians.
This initiative aims to enhance the government’s digital payment agenda and accelerate the nationwide adoption of AfriGO, Nigeria’s National Domestic Card Scheme.
According to the statement from the two organizations,
Moniepoint and AFSL will use Moniepoint’s infrastructure to introduce a tap-and-pay solution. This will allow users to make payments by tapping or hovering their contactless AfriGO card or NFC-enabled device over a payment terminal or compatible mobile phone.
