Credo Expands Digital Payment Access for MSMEs in Port Harcourt
Credo by eTranzact has expanded its presence in southern Nigeria by launching a digital payment campaign aimed at empowering micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs).
The market-level activation took place across three major markets in Port Harcourt—Garrison Computer Village, Rumukalagbor Market, and Rumuomasi Market—and was designed to help informal retailers transition from cash-based operations to more secure and traceable digital payment systems.
Organised in partnership with Eligbam City, the initiative engaged hundreds of small business owners, many of whom were unfamiliar with digital point-of-sale tools or electronic transaction reconciliation systems.
Over several days, the Credo team provided live demonstrations, hands-on onboarding, and support workshops tailored to the needs of small-scale traders.
“We are not just building a payment solution; we are building confidence in the future of small businesses,”
said Omokorede Amund, Product Marketing Manager for Credo by eTranzact.
The campaign addressed key concerns among market traders, such as transaction security, delays in daily settlements, and ease of use of digital payment platforms.
“Port Harcourt is full of hustle and innovation. This roadshow gave us the chance to meet business owners where they are and show them real-life benefits of going digital,” Amund added.
To further encourage adoption, the campaign included a raffle draw, where participants won WiFi routers, cash prizes, and business tools, adding immediate value to the experience.
For many MSMEs in attendance, this initiative marked their first exposure to a digital payment solution specifically built with their scale and challenges in mind.
The campaign is part of a broader trend in Nigeria’s fintech space, where companies are moving beyond digital ads and actively engaging with grassroots economies to promote inclusive financial services.
