Our Story

Education has a money problem
we decided to work on it

Pierre NwokePrince AkachiMaxwell Agu

Sproutly started from a simple observation — schools struggle to collect and manage money, while families struggle with the pressure of paying for Education.

We set out to build something that sits between both realities; a financial technology platform built specifically for education, helping schools manage payments and finances, ensuring teachers have the right digital tools, while giving families more flexible ways to pay for school.

Today, we’re building financial infrastructure for education across Africa
