SPAYZ.io Expands Operations in Nigeria, Japan, & the Philippines

At SPAYZ.io, we are committed to empowering businesses with seamless and efficient payment solutions. As part of our strategic expansion, we are thrilled to announce new payment services in Nigeria, Japan, and the Philippines, providing merchants access to high-growth markets through innovative financial solutions.

Strengthening Payment Infrastructure in Nigeria

Nigeria's payment landscape is evolving rapidly, and SPAYZ.io now offers bank transfer services for pay-in and pay-out transactions. This marks the beginning of our broader expansion across the region, tapping into one of Africa's fastest-growing economies. With digital payment transaction values projected to reach $236.1 billion in 2025 and $611.2 billion by 2029, Nigeria presents a dynamic opportunity for merchants looking to scale their operations. The surge in smartphone adoption, improved internet access, and evolving regulations further accelerates the demand for modern payment solutions.

Unlocking Opportunities in Japan

Japan remains a beautiful but complex market due to its stringent regulatory environment and historically slow transition to cashless payments. As of 2022, digital payments accounted for only 36% of all transactions, but this share is steadily growing. SPAYZSPAYZ.io's bank transfer services in Japan are crucial in supporting merchants navigating this market, ensuring they can operate confidently in a highly compliant environment.

Enabling Digital Payments in the Philippines

SPAYZ.io has integrated GCash P2P, the popular digital wallet in the Philippines, enabling seamless pay-in and pay-out transactions. While cash remains dominant, the PhiliPhilippines'ral bank actively promotes digital payments through financial inclusion initiatives. By introducing GCash P2P, we are helping businesses tap into an increasingly digital-savvy consumer base, driving financial accessibility and growth.

“At SPAYZ.io, we continuously seek new opportunities to connect merchants with digitally empowered consumers worldwide,” said Anna Enake, Business Development Manager at SPAYZ.io. We aim to anticipate and adapt to emerging market trends, ensuring businesses can meet their customers' payment preferences. We are excited about our latest expansions in Nigeria and the Philippines - key milestones in our broader strategy to strengthen payment networks across Africa and Asia throughout 2025.”

She further emphasized, “But our focus is not only on the emerging markets. Established economies also offer untapped potential, and we are dedicated to unlocking new opportunities for our merchants. Our bank transfer services in Japan exemplify this approach, ensuring seamless access to a traditionally complex market. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue expanding into new regions.”

With Africa and Asia at the core of our 2025 growth strategy, SPAYZ.io is dedicated to delivering innovative, reliable, and market-specific payment solutions that drive business success worldwide.
