Brief History
Flutterwave was founded in 2016 by Iyinoluwa Aboyeji, co-founder Olugbenga Agboola, and a team of African payments, technology and banking veterans from Standard Bank, Google Wallet, Andela and PayPal, amongst others. Aboyeji started Flutterwave after discovering that the payment challenges in Africa contribute to the setbacks faced by the fledgling e-commerce market. He came to this realization while he was still involved with his previous company Andela, which focuses on recruiting and training African tech talents. Aboyeji experienced challenges with sending money into Africa and had to process payment every one to three months in order to avoid incurring too many fees. It also took at least a week to transfer money to local bank accounts. He believed that solving the payment challenges for merchant partners across the continent could unlock billions of dollars hitherto left untapped by the African market.
