A closer look at Nigerian fintech
Nigerian fintech in 2026 is a story of two ends. At the top, Yellow Card raised $40 million in August from SC Ventures, Sony Innovation Fund and Polychain, and Standard Bank has agreed to invest up to $200 million in OPay alongside its planned New York listing, conditional on the IPO. At the other end, most recorded rounds are small: pre-seed cheques for Daya, Stabyl and Paycrest, and debt facilities for Nomba and Nairagram.
Across Africa, fintech took six of the ten largest rounds in the third quarter of 2026 and $204 million in disclosed funding, up from $144 million in the second quarter. Nigeria's share of that is why this page exists.
What does this page cover?
Companies match the country recorded on their Propel profile and the Fintech sector. Country does not imply incorporation, founder nationality or every market served. Counts include the financing types recorded by Propel, including equity, debt and grants. Unknown amounts are not zero. Dates retain their recorded precision. This is not a complete market census.
Listings follow Propel’s current public records. The dated context is editorial background, not a live market total. Secondary share sales are excluded from recorded funding here. Named backers are recorded participants; their inclusion does not identify them as the lead investor.
