FIRS collaborates with Flutterwave for digital payment collection

Africa’s leading payments technology company, Flutterwave, is now enabling digital tax collections for the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), making it one of the few fintechs supporting the government in modernizing tax payments.

This development allows the FIRS to leverage Flutterwave’s seamless and secure payment infrastructure to collect taxes, levies, and other payments from businesses and individuals across Nigeria.

Flutterwave’s payment technology simplifies tax payments for individuals, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), and large corporations, ensuring a fast, transparent, and accessible tax payment experience.

By integrating with the FIRS, Flutterwave provides diverse digital payment options, real-time reporting and tracking, offline tax payment capabilities, and a secure payment system for Nigerians both at home and in the diaspora.

Olugbenga ‘GB’ Agboola, CEO of Flutterwave, stated: “At Flutterwave, we are committed to leveraging technology to drive efficiency and economic growth. By making tax payments easier and more transparent, we are helping to digitize government collections and support national development which is in line with our mission.”

This integration also brings key advantages, including real-time reporting and tracking of payments, diverse digital and mobile payment options, offline tax payment capabilities, enhanced transparency for both taxpayers and the FIRS, and providing Nigerians in the diaspora an avenue to seamlessly pay their taxes.
