Fintava Pay is a banking-as-a-service (BaaS) platform for African businesses and startups that want to launch financial products through APIs without managing banking infrastructure.

Key capabilities include:

  • App as a Service to deploy a customizable digital financial platform in as little as 7 days
  • Unified API for card issuance, supporting virtual and physical cards plus full lifecycle management (including controls such as spending limits and real-time authorization)
  • Embedded financial services that can be integrated into an app or product, including payments, digital wallets, bill payments, loans, investments, and remittances
  • Compliance tooling designed to support regulated workflows, including KYC/KYB, AML, and PCI DSS requirements

Available on Web and via API.

It targets B2B teams such as fintechs, startups, SMEs, enterprises, and non-bank brands in Africa that want to offer wallet, payments, and card experiences to their customers.

In an African market where licensing, settlement, and compliance can slow product launches, it positions itself as middleware that handles backend processes for faster time-to-market across Nigeria and other African markets.
