Pay globally. Live freely.

Our story

SparkPay began in 2024 in Lagos, Nigeria, with a simple idea — moving money should be as easy as sending a text. But for many of us, it wasn't. Paying for a subscription, settling a bill, sending money to a friend, or even buying a gift card often came with delays, declines, and unnecessary stress.

We built SparkPay because we were tired of these little frictions stealing our time. Instead of offering every financial feature under the sun, we chose to focus on the essentials — fast NGN wallets, reliable virtual cards that work globally, instant gift cards, easy bill payments, and bank transfers you can actually trust.

Along the way, we learned that speed means nothing without trust. That's why we've made privacy, transparency, and human support part of everything we do. No confusing jargon, no endless wait times — just a service that works when you need it most.

Today, SparkPay is used by people and businesses who value reliability over hype. We're still growing, still improving, and still guided by the belief that payments should just work — every single time.

"At SparkPay, we're building more than a payments platform — we're building peace of mind."
Deji Lawal, CEO
