Nigeria’s Verve switches on in-app mobile payments

Pan-African payment card brand Verve International plans to provide in-app payments for local mobile applications, following a partnership with Microsoft and Nokia. The initiative is being introduced with a competition themed “Build with Verve: Lumia Edition”, which will allow developers build mobile apps using the Verve Payment SDK. The payment SDK is planned to be made available to all developers. Mobile apps developed with the in-app payment tech could reach a market of 20 million Verve Cards and Verve payment tokens in Nigeria, says the company. “As a company with proudly-Nigerian roots, we are delighted at the opportunity to create avenues for these products to be monetised by providing a highly secure integrated payment solution,” says Charles Ifedi, chief executive officer, Verve International.
