About Us
Mono is a technology company that uses open banking as a layer for financial data, identity data, and bank transfer payments for businesses in other to power the digital economy in Africa.
Mono is one of three API fintech companies to have raised a seed investment this year.
Our History
Launched in August 2020, the company streamlines various financial data in a single API for companies and third-party developers. Mono allows them to retrieve information like account statements, real-time balance, historical transactions, income, expenses and account owner identification with users’ consent.
In a region where more than half of the population is either unbanked or underbanked, open finance players like Mono are trying to improve financial inclusion and connectivity on the continent.
Open finance thrives on the notion that access to a financial ecosystem via open APIs and new routes to move money, access financial information and make borrowing decisions reduces the barriers and costs of entry for the underbanked.
Nigerian API fintech startup closed $2 million in seed investment to charge the African Internet economy, after announcing its acceptance into Y Combinator’s Winter 2021 batch in February.
Recall that in September 2020, the startup raised $500k pre-seed with plans to build Plaid for Africa.
Our Vision
to power businesses with access to financial data, and more recently, direct bank payments, to create better financial experiences for their customers has progressed with a lot of learning.
