## About the product

Key capabilities include:
- **US and Nigerian market access** for buying public listed stocks, plus **ETFs** for diversification.
- **Fractional investing** that lets users invest smaller amounts in a stock or ETF, instead of buying whole shares.
- **Account setup and funding** with identity verification using government-issued numbers (such as **BVN** or **NIN**) and wallet funding via local card channels with partner-assisted currency conversion.
- **Security and protection features**, including **two-factor authentication (2FA)**, encrypted data handling, and **SIPC insurance up to $500,000** for US stocks portfolios (as stated on the website).

Available on **Android** and **iOS**.

It targets **consumer investors (B2C)** in markets such as **Nigeria and Ghana**, including first-time and experienced investors looking to build and track a portfolio.

Notable in the African context for offering a regulated pathway to invest in **US-traded securities**, including fractional trading, while also supporting access to **local Nigerian stocks** and additional products such as fixed returns.
