Excited to share that @circle Ventures has invested in @theflutterwave. Together, we’re bringing USDC settlement into the payment flows businesses already use, making it easier to move money across borders at internet speed. This is another step toward connecting Africa to the global economy. Grateful to everyone building with us. 🌍🚀
🇳🇬 Today, @theflutterwave announces a Nigerian banking license. It is a defining step in our 10-year journey to build the financial infrastructure powering Africa’s future.
A decade ago, we started with a simple belief: better infrastructure changes everything. Payments failed too often, settlement was slow, and expanding meant rebuilding from scratch. So we focused on connecting what was fragmented.
With the acquisition of @mono_hq earlier this year, we deepened that connectivity. Now we are going further by building a unified platform where businesses can open accounts, accept and send payments, manage payouts, run payroll, and operate across currencies in one place, with access to lending and working capital powered by real transaction data.
Businesses can now run their entire financial operations seamlessly, while developers can build new financial products directly on our infrastructure at scale.
We can now build, innovate and solve customer problems faster than before because we now control the value chain of payments in Nigeria. Our destiny is now in our hands.
We are reimagining banking for Africa’s future. Faster. Smarter. Built for scale. 🚀🦋

Money is being rebuilt. 🌍
At the center of this shift are stablecoins, the new rails for global commerce and cross-border value.
Africa cannot simply adapt to this future; we must help define it.
That is why we, @theflutterwave, are building the continent's largest stablecoin infrastructure, built for scale and real-world use.

Nearly 10 years ago, we started @theflutterwave to connect Africa to the world. Today, we’re taking the next giant step for African commerce. 🌍
I’m proud to announce our acquisition of @Mono_hq, Africa’s leading open banking and account-based payments infrastructure.
By integrating Mono’s open-banking infrastructure, we’re furthering our commitment to building Africa’s "payments superhighway", making transactions more inclusive, interoperable, and frictionless for everyone.
While Mono will continue to operate independently under the leadership of AB , I’m excited about the collaboration and synergy ahead. Together, we’re uniquely positioned to unlock new possibilities for payments and embedded financial services for the continent. 🦋

We opened V4 as a public beta because we want developers to test it, break it, integrate with it, and tell us what works and what to improve.
The goal is simple. Build with the community, even though we have tested it rigorously - @theflutterwave CTO
@iChuloo We are not only shipping product. We are focused on performance and eliminating bottlenecks.
The aim is higher throughput, stronger uptime, lower latency, and continuous improvement. - CTO @ObatomiT
@iChuloo One big frustration for developers has been the mismatch between sandbox and production. We fixed that.
V4 gives you exact replicas across environments, so your API on sandbox works the same way in production. - @ObatomiT
Tomorrow, I’ll be on X Spaces with @ichuloo of Hackmamba, our CTO @ObatomiT, and our Developer Experience Lead @corneliusyaovi to have a conversation about the evolution of our APIs. We will discuss:
•Why we rebuilt our APIs
•What’s new in V4
•What’s happening to V3
•What we’re improving before the final version
•And how we’re making your integration experience faster and easier.
Come with your questions, we’re answering all of them!

We’re breaking down the new V4 APIs tomorrow in an open X Space hosted by @ichuloo, with our CEO @techprod_arch, CTO (Interim) @ObatomiT, and DevEx Lead @corneliusyaovi.
If you’ve ever integrated our APIs or plan to, this conversation is for you.
See you!

We built @theflutterwave to connect Africa to the world—and the world back to Africa via seamless payments.
Now, together with @0xPolygon, we’re making that vision faster, cheaper, and truly borderless.
Stablecoins on @theflutterwave mean:
💼 Enterprises get real-time settlement, not T+2
🏪 SMBs can pay suppliers instantly globally and also receive payments in stables
👨🏾💻 Consumers send money home in seconds and also get paid in stables
We’re proud to be bridging traditional finance and blockchain—securely, at scale, and for everyone in Africa.
