For 10 years, CWG Plc and CIT Vericash have worked with UBA Group to support and grow one of Africa’s most successful digital banking platforms. What began as a technology partnership has developed into a long-term collaboration that has played a central role in UBA’s digital banking expansion across the continent, helping to simplify banking and scale digital services in multiple markets.
“Together, we built and evolved the UBA Mobile App with over 10 million users, operating across 20 African markets, and recognized as one of Nigeria’s top digital banking apps,” says Austin Okere, Founder of CWG Plc. The app’s growth reflects the strength of a partnership built around reliability, scale, and consistent execution.
Over the past five years, the impact of this collaboration has been reflected in rapid digital adoption. Digital subscribers have increased fifteenfold, monthly transactions have grown twenty-five times, and transaction values have expanded eighty times. Beyond the numbers, this growth points to a broader shift in how millions of Africans engage with financial services, with digital channels becoming central to everyday banking.
The collaboration between UBA Group, CWG Plc, and CIT Vericash illustrates how sustained technology partnerships can reshape banking at scale across Africa. CWG’s experience in enterprise and fintech solutions, combined with Vericash’s secure and scalable payments infrastructure, has supported UBA in building a digital banking operation that remains stable under heavy transaction volumes while serving a growing customer base across the continent.
This transformation is bolstered by a state-of-the-art, end-to-end fintech enablement platform designed to deliver high system stability and operational reliability. The platform has helped streamline banking processes, improving efficiency within the bank while making digital services easier and more dependable for customers.
“The 10th anniversary of this partnership marks a milestone in Africa’s digital banking transformation,” Okere adds.
The collaboration between UBA, CWG, and Vericash continues to influence how digital banking services are developed and delivered across African markets.
