PenOp Pension Operations & Inclusion Programme

Strengthening Nigeria’s Pension Ecosystem — Without Replacing What Already Works.

Shared reconciliation, verification and inclusion infrastructure that runs alongside PenCom, PFAs, PFCs and employers — connecting existing systems rather than duplicating them.

Fewer Contribution Exceptions

End-to-end matching of schedules, payments, PFC receipts and RSA allocation.

Lower Verification Cost

One shared liveness and identity service, consumed through each PFA's own channel.

More Funded PPP Accounts

Activation and collection rails for informal-sector contributors. (Future module)

Easier Diaspora Contributions

Foreign-currency contribution orchestration for Nigerians abroad. (Future module)

How it works

A shared layer between the systems you already trust.
