Duplo, a Nigerian fintech offering payments solutions to businesses across the continent, has raised $4.3 million in a seed round.
According to Duplo, the round was oversubscribed with 45 investors participating, including angels who bought into the company’s mission and vision of digitizing payments for African businesses.
Investors who participated in the seed round include:
The startup, which started operations in 2022, has found clients among FMCG (fast moving consumer goods) distributors and finance departments, helping them to digitize and simplify the way money moves between them and their business partner.
The business has grown, increasing the number of clients on its platform by 1,000%, while the payments they received have grown by 5,000% in the last 3 months.
