Building the payment infrastructure for African Commerce
iTEKKUPay turns any standard Android smartphone into a certified payment terminal with zero hardware required. We eliminate hardware POS terminal costs, paper roll maintenance, and delayed settlements for MSMEs across Lagos and Africa.
Born In Lagos, Built For African MSMEs
In 2021, traditional merchants across Ejigbo and Lekki were routinely losing up to 30% of sales whenever bank transfer network delays occurred or physical POS hardware broke down.
We engineered iTEKKUPay as a direct response: a software-first SoftPOS terminal that requires zero extra hardware investment. By enabling contactless NFC phone taps, card taps, printable QR codes, and instant payment links, we give every merchant full financial autonomy in their pocket.
“Our vision is to make payment collection and same-day bank settlement as effortless as sending a message on WhatsApp.”
Traditional Hardware Friction
Traditional POS terminals cost ₦80,000–₦150,000 upfront per device, require monthly SIM data rentals, and suffer frequent network downtime.
Sub-Second NFC SoftPOS
Turn your existing Android phone into a payment node. Tap phone to phone or tap card on phone in under 0.2 seconds with no dongles attached.
Same-Day Auto Settlement
Stop waiting T+1 for funds. Growth and Business tier merchants receive same-day automated payouts directly to any Nigerian bank account.
Driven By Purpose & Engineering Excellence
We combine deep market empathy with bank-grade security protocols to empower African commerce.
