    Termii, a Nigeria-Based Multichannel Marketing Platform Secures $30,000 Seed Fund from Transsion-Backed Future Hub

    Termii, a multichannel marketing platform for businesses has raised a $30,000 seed fund from Future Hub, an early-stage startup incubator backed by Transsion.

    Termii, a Nigerian-based Multichannel Marketing Platform, Secures $30,000 Seed Fund from Transsion-backed, Future Hub
    Termii is the first startup to be funded by Future Hub

    This makes Termii the first startup to be funded by the China-Africa incubator which launched earlier in September to raise equity-based investments of up to $300,000 for early-stage African startups.

    Termii, through its online messaging platform, is solving customer retention challenges for businesses by providing multi-channel real-time messaging which drives interaction between customers and brands.

    Gbolade Emmanuel, CEO of Termii, explained that the company provides the platform and tools for companies to function appropriately.

    “We had a platform where companies can [sic] sign up on and interact with each other and also find tools suitable for them to function appropriately,”

    Gbolade Emmanuel, CEO of Termii

    According to the startup, the new funds will be used to optimise the platform for users across their key markets in Africa and also upgrade customer authentication and verification APIs.

    Termii provides tools to allow businesses to send personalized messges

    Founded by Gbolade Emmanuel and Tayo Awe in 2014 as a team networking platform, Termii was rebranded and relaunched in 2017.

    Currently, Termii serves customers in Nigeria, Morocco, Ghana, and the Benin Republic. According to the company’s website, over 2,850,000 messages have been personalised on the platform and about 862 teams are engaging over 1.7 million Africans monthly to communicate personal messages.

    Emmanuel revealed that the company has largely grown by leveraging on multiple communication channels that provide alternative delivery options to customers.

    “We have grown from a few customers to hundreds of top brands using our platform like Bankly, Fundall and other fast-rising fintech [companies] as well as service providers”

    Microtraction recently invested in Termii

    The funds raised from Future Hub came just after Termii raised an undisclosed amount Microtraction, a Nigerian VC firm.

    Having developed the business so far majorly through founders’ investments, the recent influx of funds from Microtraction and Future Hub will provide solid financial backing for the startup to solidify its market and further expand its brand across Africa.

    For many people, managing money and knowing the ri For many people, managing money and knowing the right opportunities to invest in is still a challenge. A survey of over 2,000 youths in Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Cote D’Ivoire by Geopoll revealed that more young Nigerians only save after spending than their counterparts in other countries.

More youths in Tanzania and Uganda set aside a fixed amount to save than in Nigeria and Ivory Coast, who are more likely to save what remains after spending

The popularity of apps like @Piggybankng and @Cowrywise has made more people curious about saving, investing and creating a financial strategy to grow their money. However, there is need for more apps that take a more deliberate and friendly approach towards gaining financial intelligence and map out a sustainable path to monetary stability.

This is where Fundall comes in. @get_Fundall is a fintech service whose app is available for download on android and iOS.

    Things are gradually returning to normal as the nu Things are gradually returning to normal as the number of covid-19 cases continues to fall. Although it may take a while before we hug people or shake hands without second thoughts, things are getting better.

Only 523 new cases were recorded between April 6 and 13. This is a slight increase compared to the 497 people that tested positive over the previous week. Two weeks earlier, Technext reported that 584 people tested positive.

The numbers show a sustained decrease in the spread of infections across the country. Indeed the Lagos state government is now confident enough to allow event centres and relaxation centres to increase their crowd capacity. Along with that, here are other developments during the week.

    Today, @Google unveils a Doodle to posthumously ma Today, @Google unveils a Doodle to posthumously mark the 74th birthday of Nigerian music legend and highlife maestro Oliver de Coque, one of Africa’s most prolific recording artists of all time.

The Doodle, created by Lagos-based graphic artist and illustrator @OhabTBJ, pays tribute to the guitarist who died in June 2008 at the age of 61, following a heart attack. The creative inspiration was drawn from De Coque’s love for the guitar, his energetic performance style, his unique music brand, and his love of tradition and culture.
