Remita Expands Beyond Payments with Launch of All-in-One Financial Super App
At the ongoing Nigeria Fintech Week, payments platform Remita unveiled its new mobile app—a comprehensive financial solution hub that extends far beyond simple payment processing.
The app allows users to:
- Make payments and transfers across multiple banks
- Buy stocks and shares
- Apply for loans from various providers
- Pay utility bills
- Purchase government bonds
- Send money internationally across Africa
- Manage multiple fintech apps in one place
Speaking at the launch, Remita MD Deremi Atanda positioned the app as a lifestyle transformation rather than just another financial tool. “This is about expanding access to services and making financial management truly seamless,” he explained.
Key Features of the New App:
- Consolidated view: For the first time at scale, users can see all their bank accounts from different institutions in a single app—a feature previously only available to organizations.
- Loans Marketplace: Compare loan offers from multiple providers in real-time and access credit opportunities based on individual financial profiles.
- Investment platform: Buy stocks and shares directly through the app.
- Smart money management: AI-powered budgeting tools, expense tracking, personalized alerts, and recurring payment setup.
- Pan-African transfers: Send money securely to any bank account in Africa using partnerships with the Pan-African Payment and Settlement System (PAPSS).
Atanda emphasized that Remita’s 20 years of experience helping businesses manage payments laid the foundation for this consumer-focused expansion. The app represents a collaborative effort across the financial ecosystem, bringing together banks and fintech providers to serve customers better.
The launch signifies Remita’s evolution from a behind-the-scenes payment processor into a direct provider of comprehensive financial services—a strategic move in Nigeria’s rapidly evolving digital finance landscape.
