How It Works

Three Ways to Pay — Online and Offline

SwissPay works across three payment modes. When internet is available, transactions process online instantly. When it is not, SwissPay automatically switches to its offline protocol — so payments never stop.

Most Common

Phone to Phone (SoftPOS)

The free SwissPay app turns any NFC-enabled Android smartphone into a payment terminal. Processes payments online when connected, and falls back to offline mode automatically when the network drops. Replaces ₦200,000 POS hardware with a free download. No rental fees. No hidden charges.

World First

Watch to Watch

Two SwissPay wearables tap together and value transfers instantly. Online or offline, no terminal, no phone required. The world's first device-to-device wearable payment exchange. Built for high-speed transport environments where speed and security matter most.

Coming Soon

Watch to Phone

A SwissPay watch taps any NFC-enabled Android phone and payment completes in under 3 seconds — whether or not there is an internet connection. Designed for conductors, vendors, and operators who serve high volumes on the move.

The Problem

Nigeria's Daily Payment Crisis

For over 120,000 daily commerce operators — bus conductors, market traders, tricycle and okada operators, kiosk owners, and farmers — payment failure is not an edge case. It is the daily reality.

37%

Adults Unbanked

37% of Nigerian adults remain unbanked. Existing digital payment platforms require stable internet and a bank account. When networks fail at peak hours, cash becomes the only fallback. SwissPay removes that dependency.

11.6%

POS Failure Rate

Merchants pay 3 to 5% extra in fees just for cash access. Weekend ATMs run dry. Withdrawal limits cost operators 30 to 40% of daily revenue.

70%

SMEs Excluded

70% of SMEs excluded from digital payments. 93% of cash is hoarded outside banks — despite 60% NFC smartphone adoption. The devices exist. What has been missing is a payment platform that works with Nigeria's infrastructure, not against it.
