NowNow’s Feature Roadmap
According to the co-founders, the most challenging aspect of building NowNow in the past five years has been finding and building the right team.
This also includes building a cohesive culture across offices and teams in Lagos, Delhi, and Dubai, which proved harder than expected.
NowNow grew significantly in 2022, from a global team of 100 at the beginning of 2022 to a team of well over 400 by the end of Q1 2023.
A work exchange program between staff in India and Nigeria are also helping to build cross-cultural understanding and providing a unique work experience for those staff that want to take advantage of it.
In 2023, NowNow was issued Mastercard’s trust centre certification, which indicates that NowNow is a fintech that has been thoroughly vetted by Mastercard, and that NowNow’s technology is safe and trustworthy, protected against cybersecurity attacks.
“It really has been a herculean effort building the platform from the ground-up, but we’re happy we made the decision," says Sahir Berry, one of the co-founders of NowNow.
