SeerBit, a pan-African innovator in secure and seamless payment solutions, has entered a strategic partnership with digital bank Kuda to boost the convenience of online payment for businesses and other users.

The partnership enables millions of Kuda retail customers to make seamless payments on SeerBit’s checkout platform without inputting their card details. At checkout, Kuda customers can now look out for the ‘Pay with SeerBit’ option on Nigerian websites and apps when making online payments. Customers can then select Kuda for bank transfer payments and complete the transaction by generating a Pay ID from the app.

This collaboration empowers businesses of all sizes to provide a broader range of bank account payment options and gives consumers increased flexibility in their payment choices.

Confirming the announcement, SeerBit CEO Omoniyi Kolade said, “We believe everyone deserves access to convenient, accessible and secure payment options. Our partnership with Kuda offers an opportunity to expand our bank network and offer our customers a solution that caters to a broader customer base, thus fostering financial inclusivity and driving business growth.”

Noting the benefits of the collaboration, he added, “This partnership caters to an even wider range of customers by offering Kuda as an alternative bank account payment method. Beyond the enhanced payment options, customers can also rely on several other benefits such as convenience and reduced exposure to fraud, while leveraging the robust security features of both SeerBit and Kuda for a safe and secure checkout experience.’’

Musty Mustapha, Managing Director of Kuda Microfinance Bank, said, “Our partnership with SeerBit underscores our commitment to providing secure and user-friendly financial services. With their Kuda Pay ID, our customers can make online payments without the fear of exposing their debit card details, ensuring peace of mind in every transaction.”
