OUR MILESTONE
Since the lunch in 2012, we have recorded the following milestone:

CHEAP AND AFFORDABLE SERVICES
Provision of cheap and affordable financial services to rural communities; penetrating remote locations remains a challenge in the formal financial sector.

Through our Agent network, we are surmounting this hurdle by taking affordable financial services to rural dwelling who do not have enough savings to open a bank account or able to pay for banking services.

HUMAN ATM
We are resolved to reducing on over – the – counter transactions (In-branch), while at the same time providing services that endear trust and promotes convenience.

Our Agent network can be described as “HUMAN ATM”, which serves all customers segment types of every bank in Nigeria.

LARGE SCALE AGENT NETWORK
Firstmonie is driven through an Agent network (third party businesses acting on behalf of the bank to render financial services).

These Agents, who are already positioned within communities with limited or no banking penetration, provide viable partnership for reaching the target markets. The commission earned from the Firstmonie business augments their income and further empowers them to meet their domestic needs. Our network cuts across all 36 states in the country.

EMPOWERMENT OF INDIVIDUALS
Empowerment of individuals without bank accounts to initiate/consummate financial services. At any time of the day and from any of our locations. As an accredited service point in target communities, our Agent network bridges the gap between high-tech service and low-literacy clients.

VAST AND TRANSPERENT DELIVERY
A vast and transparent delivery channel for the administration of social intervention schemes, promotional disbursements, and other customized services related to logistics: some examples are the feed the future scheme by Catholic Relief Services (funded by USAID), etc.
