Company Overview
Anchor is a Nigerian-based Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) and embedded finance platform that enables businesses in Africa to build, embed, and launch financial products. The company provides APIs, dashboards, and tools to facilitate the creation of bank accounts, money transfers, card issuance, and savings products. A participant in Y Combinator's Summer 2022 batch, Anchor aims to abstract away the complexities of licensing, compliance, and infrastructure, allowing other companies to go to market with financial offerings more quickly. The company has raised over $3.4 million in funding, including a $2.4 million seed round in September 2023 led by Goat Capital.
