About Afomo

Afomo powers informal trade in Nigeria. It helps informal merchants sell beyond foot traffic and personal networks, receive secure payments and build a verified trust history through trust-based merchant profiles, which can unlock access to financial services.

The Abuja company, Afomo Technology, serves buyers, sellers and field agents, and works with partners that want to reach informal businesses. Its LinkedIn describes location-based social commerce with AI-generated trust scores. Afomo's model turns everyday commerce data into a financial identity for traders who are underserved by formal finance.
