This is the best summary I could come up with:
Justin Kan’s Goat Capital led the financing round which also welcomed participation from FoundersX, Rebel Fund and some existing investors, including Y Combinator and Byld Ventures.
Its proposition was straightforward: provide APIs, dashboards, and tools to assist developers in embedding and building banking solutions.
Anchor is one of a few BaaS providers in the Nigerian market; it competes in a crowded fintech space that includes JUMO, Maplerad, OnePipe and Bloc.
According to Adeyemi, the startup recognized a huge potential to connect these companies online and power their financial service offerings.
Others include determining proper pricing, developing revenue sources positively affecting customers’ bottom line and re-engineering its compliance processes.
“The embedded finance market in Africa is nascent but growing fast at over 30% CAGR,” said Kan. “Anchor’s growth rate is impressive and showing signs of becoming the category leader, which is something we look out for in our portfolio companies.”
