Vepay Expands Its Reach with New Financial Services for Africa’s Growing Digital Economy
Fast-evolving fintech innovator, Vepay Technologies, is significantly enhancing its presence within Africa’s dynamic digital finance sector. Founded by visionary entrepreneur Oluwagbenga Agunbiade, Vepay commenced operations earlier this year with a clear objective: to simplify international payments for everyone. Its initial offering, a virtual dollar card, quickly resonated with users seeking a reliable solution for global subscriptions, various digital tools, and diverse online services, establishing Vepay as a key player in accessible digital transactions across Africa.
Vepay’s Ambitious Expansion: Addressing Broader African Payment Needs
Building on the strong foundation of its virtual card success, Vepay is now entering an ambitious new phase of growth, introducing a comprehensive suite of financial services designed to cater to a wider spectrum of payment requirements for individuals and businesses across the continent, particularly in Nigeria. This strategic expansion includes seamless cross-border money transfers, facilitating easy movement of funds across borders. Furthermore, the platform now supports convenient bill payments, airtime recharges, and cable TV subscriptions, streamlining essential daily financial tasks. A significant addition is a new Point-of-Sale (POS) model, specifically tailored to empower merchants and small business owners in Nigeria, providing them with essential tools for managing transactions and growing their enterprises. Oluwagbenga Agunbiade, Founder and CEO of Vepay, articulated the company’s evolving vision, stating, “We started with virtual cards to help people make seamless international payments. But Africa’s payment needs go beyond that. This next step is.” This statement underscores Vepay’s commitment to evolving with the continent’s diverse and expanding financial landscape, moving beyond its initial focus to become a more holistic digital payment provider.
This strategic diversification positions Vepay not just as a provider of international payment solutions, but as a robust ecosystem for everyday financial transactions. By integrating services like local bill payments and a merchant-focused POS system, Vepay is directly contributing to the financial inclusion and digital empowerment of both individuals and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Africa, fostering a more interconnected and efficient digital economy. The company’s continued innovation ensures that essential financial services are not only accessible but also intuitive and reliable, driving digital adoption across critical sectors.
