  • Thanks to CrossTech for hosting us at the #CrossTechWorld2025. In separate sessions, Bode Aregbesola and Nkem Abuah broke down our decade-long mission to fix Africa’s payment fragmentation.  Africa is not one country, but we are making it feel like one in payments. We’ve built a payment superhighway that allows global and local enterprises to connect across the continent via a single API. Instead of navigating different regulations and payment methods country by country, businesses can integrate once to access cards, APMs such as mobile money, bank transfers, and our rapidly expanding stablecoin network. Hear how we are enabling faster, affordable, and compliant cross-border transactions at scale: 👉🏽 https://lnkd.in/exBEiZcQ 

  • Lagos 🤝🏽 London! Proud to see our own Olugbenga Agboola championing the future of African fintech on the global stage as always. Whether through Send App (https://lnkd.in/dCDHCYm5) or our enterprise solutions, Flutterwave is proud to be the bridge that connects African innovation to global capital. Let’s keep building! 🚀

    It was a privilege to join His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, alongside private sector leaders during this historic State Visit to the United Kingdom. From Windsor Castle to engagements at the Tate Modern, the visit reinforced a strong commitment to deepening UK–Nigeria economic ties and strengthening investor confidence. It was great to engage alongside leaders including Roosevelt Ogbonna, Group Managing Director of Access Bank Plc, Dr. Stanley Uzochukwu, Executive Chairman, Stanel Group Limited, Founder and CEO The Delborough Lagos, Florence Otedola (DJ Cuppy), Olasupo Olusi, Managing Director/CEO of the Bank of Industry Limited, and Obi Asika, Director-General of the National Council For Arts And Culture (NCAC). A defining moment was seeing Send App front and center in remittance conversations during the State Visit, enabling Nigerians in the UK to send money home seamlessly with consistently the best rates. As this corridor evolves, Send App continues to serve as a trusted bridge between the diaspora and opportunities back home. Try Send App now: https://lnkd.in/ePT5zUCW I was joined by Oluwabankole Falade, Chief Legal and Public Policy Officer, and Mo Bammeke, Chief Compliance Officer, representing the Flutterwave team and reinforcing our role in connecting Africa to the global economy and unlocking opportunities across the UK and Nigeria. My thanks to the President for leading such a purposeful engagement. 🇳🇬🇬🇧

  • Today is a special day at Flutterwave as we celebrate the birthday of our Founder and CEO, Olugbenga Agboola, whose vision set this journey in motion. Over the years, the world has watched Flutterwave grow into a force powering payments for businesses across Africa, building products that simplify how money moves, and connecting African businesses to a global stage. But the truth is, these wins did not happen by chance. Every milestone was shaped by resilience, and the unwavering belief of a leader who knew, long before it was obvious, that Africa deserves world-class financial infrastructure. Today, we celebrate the man behind the mission, the progress of the last decade, and the even greater milestones that lie ahead. Happy Birthday, GB. With love and gratitude from all of us at Flutterwave 💛

    Great beats and great payments have one thing in common— they set the stage for stars to shine. If our creative economy is going to reach its full potential, the fundamentals have to disappear into the background: strong infrastructure, global access to education, world-class engineering, and payments that simply work. That’s what our partnership with the Tiwa Savage Music Foundation is about: building the rails that make the journey from a local studio to the global stage as simple as making a digital transaction. 🚀 The Tiwa Savage Music Foundation is investing in the entire ecosystem - the producers, engineers, and composers who keep the industry moving. And by connecting local talent with global institutions like Berklee College of Music, we’re proud to support them to help African aspirations travel further. Tiwa’s dream and ours meet at the same place. One is powered by code, the other by culture. Both start with belief. Proud to stand with Tiwa Savage and the entire team on this journey.

    At Flutterwave, we build the rails that move Africa’s economy forward. But a thriving economy isn’t just made of transactions, it’s built on the talent, stories, and sounds that define us. We are proud to announce our strategic partnership with the Tiwa Savage Music Foundation. Together with Tiwa Savage, we are investing in her dream to build the full creative stack: from the artists on stage to the producers and engineers behind the boards. By providing world-class resources and global pathways, we ensure that Africa’s creative exports are as seamless and scalable as our payments. Our mission remains the same: Connecting Africa to the world, and the world to Africa 🦋

    4 Months. Endless Inspiration. ✨ It’s been exactly four months since I joined the team at Flutterwave, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that "The Future is Female" isn’t just a slogan here—it’s our everyday reality. 🚀 Coming into the fintech space, you often hear about the "gender gap." But walking through our doors (and hopping on our calls), I see women leading, innovating, and driving the digital payments revolution across Africa and beyond. 🌍 From our leadership teams to our engineers, the "Wavers" I work with prove daily that when you empower women, you don't just change a company—you change an entire ecosystem. As we celebrate International Women's Day, I’m feeling: ✅ Grateful for the mentors who have guided me these first 4 months. ✅ Inspired by the sheer brilliance of the women ruling the game at Flutterwave. 👸🏾 ✅ Excited for everything we’re going to build next. Happy IWD to all the incredible women breaking boundaries! Let’s keep making "one day" every day. #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2026 #Flutterwave #WomenInTech #LifeAtFlutterwave

  • Stablecoins are truly having a moment, and we’re excited to be part of this new wave 🔥 But here’s one important thing to understand: stablecoins shouldn’t be treated like just another payment product. They’re settlement rails. What this means is that stablecoins are best integrated at the settlement layer, not across your entire payments stack. We did a deeper dive into what this means, how it works, and why it matters for builders and businesses. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ePmzzWZq

  • What happens when you take stablecoin infrastructure out of controlled testing and into the real world? You uncover operational insights that no QA environment can simulate. 🛠️ In the latest edition of StableRails, we break down Flutterwave’s live production use cases—powering real merchant transactions, enterprise treasury flows, and programmable on/off-ramps. 💸 ➡️ Swipe through for a glimpse of how we are optimizing the rails of cross-border finance. Want the full breakdown? Subscribe to the StableRails newsletter to follow our journey as we build in public: https://lnkd.in/dt-vA5YR 🦋 🚀
