Digital bank PalmPay has once again secured global recognition, earning a place on CNBC and Statista\u2019s 2025 Top 300 Fintech Companies in the World list.\n<\/p>\n
This marks the second consecutive year the fintech platform has been listed among the world\u2019s most innovative and impactful financial technology firms, placing it alongside global giants such as Revolut, Nubank, and Ant Group.\n<\/p>\n
In a statement on Tuesday, the Founding Chief Marketing Officer at PalmPay, Sofia Zab, described the recognition as a strong validation of the company\u2019s commitment to financial inclusion across emerging markets.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cTo be recognised as one of the world\u2019s top fintech companies by CNBC and Statista is a powerful affirmation of our mission to build a more inclusive financial system,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Zab noted that PalmPay\u2019s strategy combines cutting-edge technology with deep local distribution to meet the needs of underserved communities.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough a customer-first mindset, we\u2019ve built Nigeria\u2019s leading neobank,\u201d she added.\n<\/p>\n
PalmPay currently serves over 35 million registered users, processing up to 15 million transactions daily. In Nigeria, its core market, PalmPay operates as a full-service neobank, offering services such as transfers, bill payments, credit, savings, and insurance, all available through its user-friendly mobile app.<\/p>\n
The company also maintains a nationwide network of over one million agents and merchant partners and provides POS and API-driven solutions for merchants and enterprise clients.\n<\/p>\n
Group Chief Commercial Officer at PalmPay, Jiapei Yan, said the fintech platform is building a neobanking infrastructure that aligns with the realities of emerging markets.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are creating the infrastructure for a connected digital economy where people and businesses can thrive through reliable, inclusive financial tools,\u201d Yan said.\n<\/p>\n
He added that the CNBC and Statista ranking not only affirms PalmPay\u2019s progress but also highlights the scale of opportunity in emerging markets.\n<\/p>\n
PalmPay recently expanded into Tanzania and Bangladesh, using smartphone device financing as a gateway to digital financial services for new users in these regions.\n<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cOur focus remains on closing financial access gaps for everyday consumers and businesses, while expanding the partner ecosystem that fuels our reach and impact,\u201d Zab said.\n<\/p>\n
