Carbon Nexus Revolutionizes Payments for Nigerian Businesses at Lagos Startup Week
For many businesses in Nigeria, the process of collecting payments often presents a significant hurdle, sometimes even more daunting than the revenue generation itself. Common issues like fragmented payment alerts, the challenge of reconciling incoming funds, and the absence of real-time oversight can transform daily financial management into a chaotic struggle. It’s against this backdrop that Carbon, a leading digital bank in Nigeria, unveiled its innovative payment infrastructure product, Carbon Nexus, at Lagos Startup Week 2025. This launch signifies a strategic move to infuse much-needed clarity, control, and tranquility into the complex world of business collections.
Smarter Collections: Nexus for the Digital Age
Ngozi Dozie, CEO and co-founder of Carbon, highlighted the prevalent pain point, stating, “Too many business owners are still refreshing bank apps and updating spreadsheets just to keep track of who’s paid. With Carbon Nexus, we’re giving them a smarter, simpler way to manage money coming in. No more guesswork, no more stress.” The initial iteration of Carbon Nexus is specifically engineered for “builders”—platforms, technology companies, and product development teams that aim to seamlessly integrate payment collection capabilities directly into their existing operational workflows. Delivered via a direct Application Programming Interface (API), Nexus empowers businesses with the capability to instantly generate both static and dynamic payment structures. This integration capability offers a powerful tool for automating and streamlining the collection process, moving away from manual tracking and towards an efficient, embedded financial system.
Carbon Nexus is poised to fundamentally transform how Nigerian businesses manage their finances. By offering a robust, API-driven solution for collections, Carbon is not just providing a new product; it’s delivering a promise of smarter payments and significantly less chaos for businesses navigating the vibrant, yet challenging, Nigerian economic landscape. This initiative is a clear indicator of Carbon’s commitment to leveraging technology to solve real-world problems and foster growth within the African tech ecosystem.
