Our story

A proudly Nigerian company, having been in business for over 39 years, and listed on the Nigerian Stock exchange since 2008. Although Chams is well known for having championed identity management and other major initiatives in Nigeria, including BVN and INEC projects over the years, Chams Plc has migrated into delivering Fintech and other innovative digital solutions.

The Group is now very focused on delivering innovative digital services across a broad range of private sector consumer and business segments, with a particular focus on the consumer segment.

The Chams Group has four subsidiaries: ChamsSwitch, ChamsMobile, Card Centre and Chams Access, of which both the former are Fintech subsidiaries. ChamsSwitch focuses primarily on remittances, card payment processing and financial services, whilst ChamsMobile provides Mobile money accounts supported with a country-wide financial services agent infrastructure. Chams Access manages a range of equipment supply and innovative digital solutions, whilst Card Centre personalizes cards and other products, primarily for banks. We expect significant growth and value for shareholders through our subsidiaries, and particularly from our Fintech companies.

The group's subsidiaries hold various licenses such as: Payment Solution Service Provider (PSSP), Mobile Money Operator, Switching License, Payment Terminal Service Provider (PTSP), Super-Agent License.

Chams PLC is the first home-grown company to be listed in the Guinness Book of Records for setting up the mega ChamsCity Digital Mall and also the first computer technology company listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange under ICT.
