Zeeh Africa

Pre Seed Round in 2023
Zeeh Africa is a financial technology startup that aims to drive financial inclusion across Africa. We do this by providing a secure and user-friendly platform that simplifies financial management and streamlines credit applications for individuals and businesses. Our platform connects users to trusted identities, consumer financial data, and credit scoring/analytics, all with a single secure ID. The problem we are solving is the lack of reliable infrastructure and data analytics that makes it difficult for financial services businesses to access user identities and financial data in real time. This makes customer onboarding slower, less efficient, and more expensive. It also makes it harder for consumers to manage their day-to-day finances and financial data, and for small and medium-sized enterprises in Nigeria to make informed decisions based on data rather than intuition. To solve this problem, we offer a pay-as-you-use business-to-business model where clients fund their wallets and pay per API call, with each API endpoint having a predefined fee. We also have a consumer freemium model, with a subscription base (in the pipeline) where clients can subscribe to a volume of API calls capped at a limit. The market we operate in is the financial technology industry in Africa, which is a rapidly growing market with a lot of potential. The size of the market is difficult to quantify, but we believe there is a significant demand for our product and services across Africa. Our opportunity for growth and scalability lies in our ability to continuously innovate and differentiate our products and services. This could include offering unique features or functionality, providing superior customer service, or offering competitive pricing. We also plan to expand beyond our current scope by exploring new industries and technologies that can benefit from our platform.
