Ecobank Nigeria has introduced the Ecobank Business App, a digital banking platform aimed at supporting the growth and sustainability of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) across the country.
The new application enables business owners to manage payments, track transactions, monitor cash flow, and conduct daily financial operations directly from their mobile devices, helping to eliminate delays, long queues, and operational inefficiencies.
According to a statement by the bank, the app is now available for download on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.
Speaking at the launch in Lagos, Executive Director, Consumer and Commercial Bank, Kola Adeleke, said the Business App was developed to tackle the unique challenges facing Nigeria’s diverse SME sector.
He noted that the platform is designed to serve a broad spectrum of enterprises, including traders, retailers, tech start-ups, online businesses, hospitality operators, farmers, agro-processors, and manufacturers.
Adeleke added that the app would also benefit construction firms, professionals, social commerce entrepreneurs, schools, associations, and organisations that require transparent and efficient financial management.
Highlighting its features, he explained that the platform offers faster payment collection for merchants and retailers, seamless digital transactions for online businesses, efficient vendor and staff management for hospitality operators, and timely payment solutions for players in the agricultural value chain.
It also provides secure handling of bulk and high-value transactions for manufacturers and construction companies.
He further noted that professionals such as lawyers and consultants can easily issue invoices and receive payments, while schools and associations can streamline the collection of fees, dues, and reporting through a single platform.
The launch, Adeleke said, underscores Ecobank’s broader commitment to empowering SMEs through digital innovation and sector-specific value propositions, alongside financial solutions such as structured loans, trade support, guarantees, and equipment financing.
