About Kwaba
Kwaba is a rent payment platform that helps low-middle income earning Nigerians pay their house rent in convenient instalments. We don’t see the sense in paying rent yearly when salaries are paid monthly. With Kwaba, say goodbye to paying Landlord’s 1 to 2 years rent in advance and hello to the new school where you can spread your rent payment over 6 to 12 months. Join us on our journey in helping reduce homelessness, financial hardship and improve financial well-being. Let's bridge the gap between property and finance together.
