Whether it’s fulfilling immediate financial obligations, making essential bill payments, or supporting friends through the Loan Friends feature, Sycamore ensures that its customers are equipped with the tools they need to navigate the complexities of the modern financial landscape.
“We’ve always been paranoid about giving our customers unique experiences. We didn’t want to just push out another “loan app” into the market without offering any additional value to them,” said Mayowa Adeosun, Sycamore’s COO. “Being the customer-centric business that we are, we engaged our customers on their needs. We are proud that our app does face everyday — the management of loans given to — or received from — friends and family almost everyday.”
One of many significant milestone that highlights Sycamore’s dedication to excellence is its recent achievement as the first fintech in Nigeria to obtain approval from the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC). This recognition solidifies Sycamore’s position as a trusted and reliable financial partner, ensuring that its users can transact with confidence, knowing that their interests are protected. Another is being awarded ‘SME Enabler of the Year’ in 2023 by Business Day. This speaks to SycamoreNG’s unwavering commitment to the growth of all MSMEs in Nigeria.
What truly makes SycamoreNG unique compared to other P2P platforms, is its Loan Friends feature. With this groundbreaking solution, individuals can lend money to their friends while having the assurance of getting it back. SycamoreNG recognises the importance of trust and friendship in financial relationships, and Loan Friends fosters a sense of security and reliability amongst peers. By combining technology with interpersonal connections, Sycamore is strengthening the bonds of friendship while enabling individuals to support each other financially.
