OPay, Nigeria's premier digital bank, has officially launched a new office in Kano State, a move that underscores its ongoing commitment to expanding its footprint across the country and bringing its financial services and customer support directly to individuals, businesses, and communities throughout the state.
The newly opened office is situated on Hadeja Road by Yankaba Market and represents OPay's continued investment in Nigeria. The facility will function as a dedicated support hub for customers, merchants, and business partners, offering a more convenient point of contact for assistance, business engagement, and service-related needs.
Recognising Kano's significance as a major hub for trade, commerce, and business activities in Northern Nigeria, the new office is designed to help OPay better understand and respond to the specific needs of people and enterprises in the region. It will also deepen engagement with local merchants and business owners, enabling them to access the digital payment solutions they require to serve their customers and manage daily transactions with greater ease.
In her remarks at the opening ceremony, Ifeoma Mba, Chief People Officer at OPay, expressed the company's mission: 'Our commitment is to be closer to the people and communities we serve. Opening this office in Kano means more customers and businesses can access the support they need, while giving us a better opportunity to understand their needs. We are proud to continue investing in Nigeria and supporting more people and businesses through accessible digital financial services.'
Since commencing operations in Nigeria back in 2018, OPay has steadily grown to provide a comprehensive suite of digital financial services, including money transfers, bill payments, card services, airtime and data purchases, and merchant payments. The launch of the Kano office further reinforces the bank's long-term dedication to Nigeria and its role in advancing the country's financial inclusion objectives. By bringing its people, services, and support infrastructure closer to local communities, OPay is actively helping more Nigerians participate in the digital economy while providing businesses with expanded opportunities to serve their customers.
OPay's business operations across Nigeria remain fully operational, with its services continuing to be available to customers and merchants nationwide. As the company deepens its physical presence across the country, its focus remains squarely on leveraging technology to make financial services more inclusive and accessible to all Nigerians.
