Interswitch, a Nigerian payments technology company, says consumer education is the biggest hurdle to making tap-to-pay a mainstream payment method in Nigeria, even as banks and merchants prepare to support it. Speaking at Moonshot 2026 in Lagos on Thursday, Tomi Ogunlesi, divisional head of brands, communication, content and CSR at Interswitch, said the industry must convince consumers that tapping their cards or phones to pay is secure and convenient.
