Company & Product Updates

Mono BVN Lookup 2.0

Mono BVN Lookup 2.0

We have updated the Mono BVN Lookup service with the new NIBSS iGREE consent requirement for accessing customer BVN data. This ensures that you can continue to use Mono to retrieve BVN data with users’ consent, maintain data privacy, and securely onboard users, in compliance with the new BVN holder consent process. Here's how to use this service.

Supported Financial Institutions API

We’ve made some updates to the Institution endpoint, so you can now view all our supported financial institutions via a single endpoint. This API also returns our available products as part of the institution object, filters by country and product scopes (financial data or payments), and checks if a connection requires reauthorization for Data Sync. Try out the supported institutions API.

Africa Tech Summit 2023

Africa Tech Summit

Our team was present for this year’s Africa Tech Summit in Nairobi, Kenya. It was such a nice time at the event and we got to meet businesses and innovators building amazing financial solutions for users in Africa. We also took the opportunity to share more about the exciting products we are building for businesses in Kenya and East Africa. You can join our developer community to stay in touch with us.
