The press release shared with Finance Magnates highlighted that the new license makes Unlimint a recognized payment services provider in the country. The company can now offer a wide range of payment services to local businesses.

Becoming a Global Payments Platform

Unlimint offers an all-in-one payments solution that includes corporate accounts and acquiring. In addition, it enhanced its services with the launch of the banking-as-a-service (BaaS) product last year. Moreover, it dived into the cryptocurrency space with the launch of GateFi, enabling developers to connect traditional payment networks with blockchains.

Headquartered in London, Unlimint has a presence in major financial hubs like Frankfurt, Singapore, São Paulo, Hong Kong, and Mexico. The company's move into Africa is strategically timed as Nigeria is experiencing an increasing demand for faster and more secure payment solutions.

"The African technology and payments sector has witnessed an exciting transformation over the past few years, with Nigeria being at the forefront of the African payments revolution," said Trevor Goott, the Director for Africa & India at Unlimint.

"This launch is the first step in Unlimint's African market expansion, with other announcements expected to be made over the coming months.
