“When I founded Flutterwave, we knew we had set a huge task ahead of us - building the infrastructure for payments for Africa is not child's play and every year since then we are assured of two things:

We were right, it is not child's play.

It may have been a crazy idea but it is possible, and that's why we are here

The key to success for us is keeping our customer's needs and growth at the heart of everything we do as a company

We have had our ups and downs - it comes with the territory - but the journey has also been highly rewarding for me and the entire team at Flutterwave. You have been with us through all of this - our first clients, our partnership announcements, our Series A round of investments, our partnership with Alipay and so much more.


Which is why I am excited to be sharing the news that we closed a $35m Series B funding round. The round was co-led by Grey Croft & eVentures with additional participation from CRE Ventures, FIS, Visa, Green Visor and Endeavor.


With this capital from our investors, we will be able to continue to provide innovative solutions for you to make and receive payments seamlessly. As always, our goal remains the same, we want to continue to connect Africa to the rest of the world by making sending and receiving payments as frictionless as possible for banks, businesses and individuals.

Another exciting bit of news I am happy to announce is that we are planning to expand into regions like Francophone and Northern Africa. We also want to grow our market share in regions we're present in - East, South, and West Africa so we will be doubling all our efforts in those regions.


All of this would not be possible if we did not have people like you trusting us to provide stellar service while keeping us on our toes, as at last year, we had processed $5.4 billion dollars for businesses and individuals as a result of that trust.

We are very excited about what this means for us as a company, but more importantly, what this means for you as a customer. You can rest assured that we will only continue to improve on our service offerings which you have come to love”.
