Nosh proudly served as a Platinum Sponsor at the recently concluded <\/span>Nigeria Fintech Forum<\/span><\/a> 2026, held at The Civic Centre, Lagos, on July 30, 2026. The event brought together leading voices in Nigeria\u2019s fintech ecosystem to explore the trends, challenges, and opportunities shaping the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Representing Nosh at the forum were Tosin Akintibu, Product Manager, as Keynote Speaker, and Mosadoluwa Hezekiah, Marketing Manager, as Panelist. Both took to the stage to share insights on product innovation and the evolving growth landscape in fintech.<\/span><\/p>\n

Simplifying Spending: A Product Perspective<\/b><\/h2>\n

In her session, Tosin Akintibu unpacked how Nosh is designing for simplicity in an increasingly complex spending landscape, walking attendees through the product thinking behind making everyday financial transactions, from <\/span>gift card trading<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>crypto conversion<\/span><\/a> to bill payments, seamless for users across Nigeria and Ghana.<\/span><\/p>\n

She argued that the real gap in fintech isn\u2019t getting people digital assets, it\u2019s making those assets usable in daily life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Akintibu also pushed back on an industry habit of equating growth with feature count.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOur job is to remove friction, not add features for the sake of it. Every decision we make on the product side starts with one question: does this make spending simpler for our users?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

From Acquisition to Revenue: A Shift in Growth Thinking<\/b><\/h2>\n

Mosadoluwa Hezekiah joined a panel discussion addressing some of the industry\u2019s most pressing strategic questions, including how fintechs are recalibrating their growth playbooks as the sector matures.<\/span><\/p>\n

When asked whether <\/span>Nosh has shifted its growth strategy<\/span><\/a> as the industry moves from acquisition-led to revenue-led thinking, Hezekiah noted that the shift is less about abandoning acquisition and more about building on top of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAcquisition got us in the door, but sustainable growth means designing for retention and lifetime value from day one. We\u2019re increasingly building campaigns and product touchpoints that convert first-time users into loyal, repeat users, because in this market, trust compounds.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Mosadoluwa<\/p>\n

On communicating a compliance-first posture without undermining the growth story, Hezekiah stressed that compliance and growth aren\u2019t in tension when they\u2019re framed correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers don\u2019t want to hear \u2018compliance\u2019 as a caveat; they want to feel it is reliable. We talk about security, licensing, and regulatory alignment as part of what makes Nosh a platform people can trust with their money, not as a fine print that slows things down.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking to whether customers notice the infrastructure behind a platform like Nosh, Hezekiah observed that most of it stays invisible by design, and that\u2019s the point.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers don\u2019t wake up thinking about our infrastructure. They notice when a transaction is instant, when a rate is fair, and when support actually helps. Our infrastructure earns its keep by being invisible; the moment it becomes visible, something\u2019s usually gone wrong.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
