The collaboration, announced by the Kwara State Government, grants startups exclusive access to the Paystack Startup Bundle—a comprehensive support package featuring tools and services from global tech leaders such as AWS, Stripe, and Intercom. Participating startups will benefit from priority onboarding, tailored payment rates, dedicated technical support, and full access to Paystack’s product suite.
