News Highlights:

  • The CSR initiative aims to empower 5,000 Women Entrepreneurs in Northern Nigeria
  • The programme is a strategic push for inclusive Financial Inclusion and Regional Development

In a strategic effort to deepen financial inclusion in Nigeria, PalmPay, a leading mobile banking platform, has rolled out a series of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs across Kano and Kaduna States.

Branded as “Passing the Baton,” the initiative underscores PalmPay’s commitment to sharing knowledge and equipping individuals and businesses with the tools needed to achieve financial independence and foster economic empowerment.

Digital TimesNG understands that this initiative is a bold move by PalmPay to bridge the opportunity gap in the North by providing financial literacy training and micro-business branding support to 5,000 women-owned businesses in Kano and Kaduna.

This strategic initiative reaffirms PalmPay’s commitment to inclusive development and economic empowerment, particularly in underserved regions.

“At PalmPay, we believe that real financial inclusion must be far-reaching and cover the grassroots,” said Chika Nwosu, Managing Director of PalmPay. “Our new CSR program is focused on supporting gender equity by equipping women with the knowledge, tools, and visibility they need to thrive as entrepreneurs in their communities.”

Through this initiative, beneficiaries will receive free health insurance, hands-on training workshops, enhanced store branding to boost visibility, and branded merchandise to strengthen their business presence.

The initiative is part of PalmPay’s broader strategy to extend its innovative solutions, expand its footprint in Northern Nigeria, while building sustainable partnerships with local stakeholders for long-term impact.

In a show of support, His Royal Highness, the Emir of Kano, Dr. Muhammadu Sanusi II, has endorsed the initiative, calling on other stakeholders to join forces with PalmPay in ensuring the North benefits fully from the growing digital economy.

PalmPay has received commendation from community stakeholders, as the initiative aims to serve as a model for similar projects across other northern states.

As PalmPay continues to scale across Nigeria, the company remains committed to bridging the financial inclusion gap and empowering underserved groups, particularly women and youth, through its innovative solutions and impact initiatives.
