OPay Strengthens Financial Inclusion with New Kano Office – Premium Times Nigeria

Mobile payment platform OPay has expanded its operations in Nigeria with a new office in Kano, according to multiple sources. The new office, which opened on November 9, 2026, is expected to bolster the company’s commitment to financial inclusion in the country. According to Premium Times Nigeria, the office will focus on customer support and will be staffed by a team of local agents. The move comes as OPay continues to grow its user base in Nigeria, where it competes with other mobile payment platforms such as Flutterwave and Remita. The company has not said when the facility began operating or provided further details about its expansion plans. The new Kano office is a significant development for OPay, as the city is a major commercial hub in northern Nigeria and home to a large number of small and medium-sized businesses that could benefit from the company’s services. Financial inclusion is a major challenge in Nigeria, with a large proportion of the population lacking access to formal financial services. Mobile payment platforms such as OPay are playing an increasingly important role in addressing this challenge by offering affordable and convenient financial services to millions of Nigerians. The expansion of OPay’s operations in Kano is a clear sign of the company’s commitment to addressing this challenge and serving the needs of Nigerian consumers.
