Building in public.

Pay anyone.
3 steps.
Any bank.

Transferring money in Nigeria takes 9 steps and anywhere from 3 to 30 minutes. Ding! collapses it to a scan and a tap. No account numbers. No app switching. No waiting to "see alert".

The problem

Nine steps to pay for your suya.

1
Open bank app
2
Wait for it to load
3
Find 'Transfer'
4
Ask for account number
5
Type in account number
6
Select their bank
7
Enter the amount
8
Verify name. Hope it's right.
9
Wait. Check for alert.

3 to 5 minutes. If everything goes well.

Most people have waited much longer.

Every informal market vendor in Lagos knows this pain. Every Uber driver. Every small business owner collecting payment from 40 customers a day.

The problem is not Nigerians. The problem is a UX built for desktop banking in 2009 that nobody has had the nerve to replace.

Ding! has the nerve.

The solution

Scan. Confirm. Done.

01Receive mode

Vendor enters amount

Type the amount. A QR appears instantly, full screen. No account number. No setup.

02Send mode

Customer scans

Open Ding! or point your camera at the QR. Amount and vendor name fill automatically.

03Instant

Both hear the Ding!

Payment confirmed instantly. No 'did it go?' No 'I didn't see the alert yet.' Done.

How it works

One app. Two modes. Every transaction.

Receive Money

You are the vendor.

  • 1Enter the amount on your numpad
  • 2A full-screen QR appears instantly
  • 3Customer scans it from across the counter
  • 4You hear the Ding. Money is in your account.
Send Money

You are the customer.

  • 1Tap 'Send Money' on your home screen
  • 2Point your camera at the vendor's QR
  • 3Amount and name fill automatically
  • 4One tap to confirm. Both sides Dinged.

The same person does both. You receive money as a vendor in the morning at your stall. You send money as a customer at lunch. Toggle between modes in one tap.
