OPay Shines with Double Recognition for Excellence in Governance and Compliance

OPay, one of Nigeria’s leading fintech companies, has been honoured with two significant awards for organisational excellence, recognising its outstanding performance in financial crime prevention, governance, risk management, and compliance.

The awards were presented at the 2025 GRC & Financial Crime Prevention Awards and reflect OPay’s continuous efforts in strengthening internal structures to ensure safety, accountability, and transparency.

According to Elizabeth Wang, OPay’s Chief Commercial Officer, the recognition is “a testament to not only the hard work and dedication of our teams, but the strong compliance culture we have built at OPay.”

She added that the awards motivate the company to keep raising its standards — investing in advanced security, compliance frameworks, and risk‑management systems to maintain a secure and trusted ecosystem for customers, merchants, and partners across Nigeria.

Since its founding in 2018, OPay has focused on using technology to make financial services more accessible — offering services like money transfers, bill payments, airtime and data purchase, merchant payments, and more — all under strong regulatory and compliance oversight.
