Moniepoint Inc has announced a strategic partnership with Afrigopay Financial Services Limited (AFSL), a subsidiary of the Nigeria Inter-Bank Settlement System (NIBSS), to distribute five million AfriGO cards to Nigerians.
The partnership, which aims to further enhance the government’s digital payment agenda, is also set to accelerate the adoption of AfriGO Card, Nigeria’s National Domestic Card Scheme, nationwide.
According to a statement from the two organizations, the collaboration will also leverage Moniepoint’s reach and infrastructure to tap-and-pay solution, which allows users to make payments by tapping or hovering their contactless card or Near Field Communication (NFC) enabled device over a payment terminal or directly on compatible mobile phone devices.
