Let me thank His Excellency, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State, and the good people of Lagos, for choosing the local team and the best microtransaction fintech company in Africa, Touch and Pay Technologies Ltd (YC W22), for the Lagos Rail Mass Transit payment processing. It is contactless and it works amazingly.
The day I met this team in Lagos, three years ago, when they were just processing $10k per month, I knew that one of Africa’s finest companies was on the horizon. Today, with close to 3 million customers and processing $$millions monthly, Touch and Pay is an innovator and pioneering new markets. It is expanding to more markets, from Kano state to Senegal, and beyond.
I commend Afolabi Olamide, Kabir Yabo, Oluwole Michael and the whole team, for executing the playbook. Tekedia Capital salutes as we wait for that bell ringing very soon. TAP, win more markets and fix frictions.
