When Abdulhamid Hassan left Paystack to establish Mono in 2020, it was not just another startup born out of pandemic-era disruption; it was a bold bet on the future of Africa’s financial infrastructure.
Back then, open banking was not yet a buzzword in Nigeria, but Hassan saw what others didn’t: that data, not just payments, would power the next generation of fintech.
Today, five years later, Mono has processed over 150 billion transactions through its platform, served more than 7 million users, and expanded into Kenya and Ghana.
