Klak, the finance automation and reconciliation platform helping Nigerian financial institutions streamline operations, has announced that its reconciliation infrastructure now powers reconciliation processes across more than 300 microfinance bank (MFB) branches nationwide.

The milestone reflects the growing demand for modern reconciliation and financial operations solutions among financial institutions seeking to reduce manual workloads, improve operational visibility, strengthen financial controls, and enhance compliance.

Nigeria’s financial institutions and fintech companies process billions of transactions annually. However, many still rely heavily on spreadsheets and fragmented workflows for reconciliation and exception management, creating inefficiencies and increasing operational risk.

Industry estimates indicate that manual reconciliation can consume more than 100 hours monthly for finance teams, while spreadsheet errors and delayed exception handling can result in significant revenue leakages running into millions of naira.

Klak addresses these challenges by automating the reconciliation lifecycle, enabling financial institutions to reduce reconciliation timelines from days or weeks to as little as 60 seconds.

According to the company, its AI-powered reconciliation platform delivers transaction matching accuracy of up to 99.99 percent, helping institutions improve operational efficiency while reducing the risks associated with manual processes.

Beyond reconciliation, the platform enables finance and operations teams to gain deeper transaction intelligence, improve compliance oversight, and scale operations more effectively.

“This milestone reflects the growing need for modern finance operations infrastructure across Nigeria’s financial ecosystem,” said Seun Ayegbusi, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Klak.

“Microfinance banks are under increasing pressure to scale efficiently while maintaining operational accuracy and compliance. We’re proud to support institutions that are building financial access across Nigeria.”

The company’s platform currently supports a broad range of reconciliation functions, including bank reconciliation, NIP (NIBSS Instant Payment) reconciliation, ATM reconciliation, and PoS reconciliation for agency banking and merchant acquiring operations.

As adoption continues to grow, Klak plans to expand its AI-powered reconciliation and operational intelligence capabilities to serve a wider range of institutions, including commercial banks, fintech companies, payment processors, insurance firms and large enterprises across Africa.

The company believes that as transaction volumes increase and regulatory expectations become more stringent, financial institutions will increasingly require intelligent automation tools to improve accuracy, strengthen controls and support sustainable growth.

Klak’s latest milestone signals a broader shift within Nigeria’s financial services sector toward modern, technology-driven finance operations designed to deliver speed, accuracy and scalability in an increasingly digital economy.
