Our Values

Our Journey

Our History

From a single branch to a digital-first microfinance platform serving communities across Nigeria.

Founded

A vision for financial inclusion

PayRep Microfinance Bank was established to address the severe financial exclusion gap in Nigeria, starting with a physical branch in Masaka, Nasarawa State, serving traders, farmers, and small business owners along the Keffi-Abuja expressway corridor.

Licensed

Regulated from day one

Licensed by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and fully insured by the Nigeria Deposit Insurance Corporation (NDIC), we built our operations on a foundation of compliance, depositor protection, and trust.

Digital Shift

From branch to digital-first

Recognizing that physical branches alone could not scale financial inclusion, we partnered with leading technology facilitators and expanded into agency banking — transforming into a modern, tech-driven microfinance institution.

Today

Nationwide reach, local roots

Today, PayRep serves individuals and businesses nationwide through mobile apps, USSD, merchant portals, and a growing agent network — staying true to our mission of empowering everyday people.
