Omni by GigaNet, a leading business management platform offering versatile payment solutions such as SoftPoS and MPoS payments, has announced a strategic partnership with Bictorys, a renowned provider of mobile money payment services. This collaboration aims to revolutionize payment solutions for merchants, banks, and financial institutions, while significantly expanding GigaNet’s reach to more countries and regions across Africa and beyond, with a special focus on empowering Nigerian businesses.

Expanding Geographic Coverage and Empowering Merchants with Seamless Transactions
This partnership enables Omni by GigaNet and Bictorys to pool their strengths to extend their payment solutions across new markets. By leveraging Bictorys’ extensive mobile money networks and Omni’s advanced platform, the collaboration will allow GigaNet to penetrate underserved regions in Africa and expand its footprint internationally, including a substantial impact on Nigerian businesses.
Nigerian merchants will gain unprecedented access to a wide array of payment options, enabling them to accept mobile money payments seamlessly alongside traditional and digital payment methods. This integration caters to Nigeria’s dynamic and fast-growing market, allowing businesses to reach a broader customer base. Omni’s SoftPoS technology ensures that even small and micro-enterprises in Nigeria can process payments with just a smartphone, eliminating the need for costly hardware and fostering economic growth.
Driving Financial Inclusion and Operational Efficiency
For Nigerian banks and financial institutions, the partnership bridges the gap between digital banking and mobile money, creating a unified ecosystem that promotes financial inclusion. By deploying Omni’s tools, financial institutions can provide merchants in Nigeria with innovative solutions to enhance business management and customer satisfaction, particularly in regions with limited access to traditional banking services.
This collaboration also streamlines payment processes, making financial transactions faster, more secure, and accessible across Nigeria’s urban and rural areas. By integrating mobile money with digital banking platforms, Nigerian businesses can enjoy reduced transaction costs and increased efficiency, boosting their overall competitiveness in both local and international markets.
