Our Journey

Born with a solution in mind

In 2019, our founders, a Lagos-based entrepreneur and fintech engineers set out to build something Nigerian businesses did not yet have: a single platform to create, send, and collect invoices without the friction of spreadsheets, WhatsApp payment disputes, missed compliance deadlines, and cash flow blind spots. Afri invoice is the trusted bridge to mandatory e-invoicing, connecting businesses to the national infrastructure without complexity, risk, or fear of non-compliance. We built Afri Invoice around that solution from day one.

The Nigerian Context

Why e-invoicing matters in Nigeria right now

NRS has mandated electronic invoicing for large taxpayers, with medium and emerging taxpayers following on a phased timeline. The time to act is now.

NRS Mandate

The Nigeria Revenue Service has made e-invoicing compulsory under a phased rollout. Non-compliance attracts significant penalties.

Reducing Bad Debt

Validated invoices mean no rejections, no penalty exposure, and records that stand in any audit. E-invoicing dramatically reduces disputes.

Mobile-First Nation

Nigeria's high rate of internet adoption means businesses are ready for real-time digital compliance. Afri Invoice is built mobile-first for Nigerian connectivity.

Global Trade

Nigerian exporters need standardised invoices accepted internationally. Our platform generates internationally compliant e-invoices.

The Nigeria Revenue Service (NRS) operates the Merchant Buyer Solution (MBS), Nigeria's mandatory e-invoicing platform.

Taxpayer Category Annual Turnover MBS Status Enforcement Timeline
Large taxpayers ₦5 billion and above Live since November 2025 Enforcement active from 2026
Medium taxpayers ₦1 billion to ₦5 billion Go live on 1 July 2026 Enforcement from January 2027
Emerging taxpayers Under ₦1 billion Go live on 1 July 2027 Enforcement timeline to follow NRS guidance

Afri Invoice is dual accredited by the NRS as both a System Integrator and an Access Point Provider, helping businesses stay compliant with Nigeria's e-invoicing requirements.

Our Foundation

What drives us every day

Our Vision

We see a Nigeria where doing the right thing is also the easy thing. A Nigeria where compliance is a business advantage, not a burden and where the company connecting businesses to it is Nigerian, built for Nigerian reality from day one. We see a nation whose invoices move on the same trusted digital rails as those of London, Paris or New York; whose traders, SMEs, and corporations are connected to real-time infrastructure the world recognises; and whose formal economy commands the confidence of investors, partners, and markets far beyond our borders. When every Nigerian invoice is digital, validated, and traceable, Nigeria does not just comply, Nigeria competes.

Our Mission

To connect every Nigerian business from the market trader to the multinational, directly and securely to the NRS e-invoicing infrastructure. We did not adapt a foreign product for Nigeria; we built for Nigerian tax regulations, payment systems, and business realities from the first line of code. As one of a select group of NRS-accredited System Integrators and Access Point Providers, we make compliance effortless, so that Nigerian businesses can spend their energy where it belongs: growing, competing, and winning.

Our Values

More than software, the solution.

Anyone can sell you a tool and leave you to figure it out. We take the compliance problem off your desk entirely: technology that automates the invoice, expertise that protects the business, and a team that stands behind both. You do not adopt Afri Invoice; you resolve compliance.

Trust that is verified, not claimed.

NRS-accredited. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified. Every invoice validated, signed, and traceable. In compliance, proof is the only currency that counts.

Every business counts.

The accreditation that serves the corporation serves the trader with the same rigour. No enterprise is too small to deserve the standard the biggest players receive.

Nigeria first, world-class always.

Engineered to global standards, operating across Nigeria, the United Kingdom, and France, so the platform behind your business is the same calibre trusted anywhere in the world.

Our Team

The people building Nigeria's financial future

World-class talent, one Nigerian mission. Our team spans three continents, bringing together engineers who have built for global fintech standards, specialists with deep command of Nigerian tax regulation, and product minds who design for how business is actually done, from Abuja to Onitsha, Aba to Ibadan.

This is deliberate. Nigeria's e-invoicing infrastructure deserves the same calibre of engineering trusted in the world's leading financial centres and the local understanding no foreign platform can fake. So we built a team that delivers both: international expertise, Nigerian understanding.

And it all serves one simple division of labour: we carry the whole weight, the compliance, the technology, the security, and the support behind it, while you concentrate on what you built your business to do. Every invoice validated, signed, and cleared correctly the first time, no rejections, no disputes, no delays standing between you and your money. Your side of the deal is the best part: serve your customers, win the next contract, and grow.

Different countries. Different disciplines. One obsession: making success effortless for Nigerian business!
