BusinessFormer Diamond Bank CEO Launches Mobilebanking Start-up "Sparkle" by Depressed101(op): 10:39am On Jun 14, 2020
Former CEO of Diamond Bank, a subsidiary of Nigeria’s multinational Access Bank Group, Pascal Dozie has launched a digital banking start-up in Nigeria called Sparkle, Disrupt Africa reports.

Having run what is now Africa’s largest bank, where he grew the retail banking arm to 18 million customers and oversaw the successful merger with Access Bank in April 2019, Uzoma Pascal Dozie is turning his hand to the start-up scene.



Dozie sees the mobile phone as the future of banking in Africa

Sparkle is based out of Lagos. It aims to target consumers and retail small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with its solutions. It wants to use technology to support and grow an entire community of retailers across the continent.

Already armed with a banking license from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Sparkle’s mobile app is offering consumer services focused around flexible payments, savings and analytics – such as bill splitting, bill payments, and incentive discounts with partner merchants.

The fintech has also collected a series of heavy weight partners, including Visa, Microsoft and PwC Nigeria, to help it develop its retail-focused offerings.

“With Sparkle we are building customer experience-led functions around savings, lending, automated inventory and asset management, and we are also developing tools to help users register their companies, register for tax and even domains,” Dozie told Forbes last August.

“We want to bring more people into the ‘system’ and plug the gap in terms of business advisory and regulatory services for retail SMEs in the country,” Dozie added. “These are services that do not currently exist under one roof for retailers.”

Dozie sees the mobile phone as the future of banking in Africa. At Diamond Bank, between 2014 and 2018, he grew its mobile app users from 204,000 to 3.3 million. It took the bank nearly 20 years to accumulate the same through its branch network, hence proving that digital is the cheaper, more scalable solution.

“It’s an exciting time for retail in Nigeria,” said Dozie. “It [Sparkle] is by no means a quick-fix solution, but we are committed to solving the unique and complex, changing needs of the Nigerian market.”

That's more like it, thank you to the mod that pushed this to the front page. I apologize for my initial outrage. There are some citizens of my great country who only represent a fraction of us. And there are others too who represent the rest of us in good light, the later is what we should celebrate. Not some nonentity that become popular overnight, or some jealous south Africans displaying their childish tantrums and cumming all over the Nigerian online space

Waoh! This is great. The igbos are good people

I have not seen any muslim woman from the north who is a popular writer

Note: Zainab Alkali was a Christian lady. She was Elizabeth Alkali from southern Borno, Borno State. A member of ECWA church but later converted to Islam.

If you know any northern woman who is a Muslim from birth and is a writer, let me know so that I can do research on her
you haven't read widely then there are excellent northern women writers too
