VeendHQ, a Nigerian fintech firm said it has secured a $330k pre-seed fund, backed by Magic Fund, The Oak Capital, Future Africa, Berrywood Capital and other angel investors, to expand its operations and scale growth.

Temi Awogboro, Lead General Partner, Africa at MAGIC Fund said, “African SMEs are grossly under-funded, with more than 50% of Africans lacking access to credit.

“VeendHQ is solving this problem by providing easy and fast access to credit, leveraging a credit infrastructure platform that automates lending processes for lenders and connects them to borrowers through various origination channels.

“We believe the VeendHQ team is on track to build a highly scalable product and position itself as a market leader in embedded finance on the continent.”

This funding will also take VeendHQ a step closer to actualising its goal of building an embedded finance infrastructure for Africa.

VeendHQ will integrate with more ecosystems and financial institutions and build products to create wealth and drive prosperity for the average African consumer.

Olukayode Olusanya, General Partner at Oak Capital stated: “The problem VeendHQ is solving is huge. Many Africans and African businesses today have zero to low access to credit.

“The team at VeendHQ is making economic prosperity accessible to everyone on the continent with the digital lending infrastructure they have built, enabling the unbanked to access credit at competitive prices.

“We are excited to see the progress that VeendHQ is making and how they are changing the credit landscape in Africa.

“At The Oak Capital, our goal is to back founders that have developed unique technology and technology-enabled solutions that truly solve African problems, creating long-term impact in the mass African market.”

Olufemi Olanipekun, CEO, VeendHQ said “VeendHQ is at the forefront of innovative financial solutions and has been on a smooth sail since its creation in 2021.

“This would not have been possible without the amazing team at VeendHQ, our partners, financial institutions and investors whose support and trust have fueled this vision.

“As we journey into another phase, our goal remains to democratise access to finance through technology-enabled finance products.”
