Our half-year 2025 review was proof that we’re executing on a long-term plan,” Flutterwave founder and CEO Olugbenga “GB” Agboola states in his half-year review message.

Flutterwave’s first half of the year was also defined by product innovation and an increasing market depth through strategic partnerships across various sectors and regions.
