<a href="http://www.motorafrica.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Motor Africa</a>, a mobility &amp; IOT infrastructure startup in Nigeria, and <a href="https://onepipe.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">OnePipe</a>, a fintech infrastructure provider, are collaborating to offer a unique blend of credit and payment services to mobility entrepreneurs in Nigeria.



The two platforms have launched a lending-as-a-service (LaaS) proposition to help mobility entrepreneurs access working capital through an overdraft to finance car repairs, purchase genuine spare parts, vehicle and personal insurance, smartphones, and cash for personal and family welfare support needs.



The technology, which generates analytical telemetry and remittance income data, assists registered lenders in making informed lending decisions while managing seamless credit repayments.

Sylvester Chude, co-founder and CEO of Envio Logistics Inc, who has been an active participant in the mobility industry, stated that cooperating with OnePipe will facilitate automatic payout settlements to vehicle owners and lending partners.

Commercial mobility in Africa is estimated to be a $150Bn market according to an article by the AfDB and was expected to grow at 8.5% between 2018 and 2023



 Regarding the partnership with Motor Africa, OnePipe CEO and founder says that working with Motor Africa will assist in addressing the challenges African mobility entrepreneurs experience when trying to get working capital financing.



Motor Africa, a trading name of envio Logistics Inc., has activated more than 2,000 vehicles already on its platform and is now poised to enable those vehicle owners (who currently use the platform to lease their cars to verified drivers on e-hailing services and local transport services) have access to credit services.



This service manages driver repayments to the vehicle owner and provides car maintenance oversights at partnered workshops.

<h4 id="about-motor-africa">About Motor Africa</h4>



Founded by Sylvester Chude, Motor Africa utilizes connected vehicle data and extensive, accurate data resources to change the mobility experience in Africa. The mobility and IOT infrastructure startup currently offers services in Lagos, Abuja, Ibadan, Benin, and Portharcourt and aims to announce further locations in the second quarter of 2023.

The Motor Africa application, which is available on the Google Play store and Apple Appstore, allows mobility entrepreneurs to register their vehicles, pay a vehicle and activation fee of N15,000, and have their overdraft wallets instantly credited with N600,000 prior to the vehicle being displayed on the mygarage platform to verified drivers.



The platform is also open to fleet operators who have previously leased cars to drivers providing various mobility services.



<figure class="wp-block-pullquote"><blockquote>In addition, Chude confirmed that the objective of Motor Africa is to facilitate the participation of financial institutions and individuals in funding the car supply gap in order to increase mobility in Africa.</blockquote></figure>



The lending as a service infrastructure, which utilizes hybrid telemetry IOT systems, enables lending partners to create loan products with interest rates and repayment terms and manage credit requests, automatic underwriting, cash disbursement, and repayment collection.



The intelligent repayment collection service enables credit subscribers to make repayments via bank transfer to a dedicated repayment wallet before due dates. When subscribers default on their repayment, the system will automatically disable the engine of the collateralized vehicle and share the geo-location with Motor Africa recovery agents in case of a repayment default.



The Motor Africa service is recommended for hosts leasing cars for e-hailing services or local last-mile transport services, drivers seeking cars on short-term lease or hire purchase, and financial institutions offering drive-to-own services or lending.
