On how safe the Nairabox mobile wallet app is, Nairabox Co-founder, Chief Executive Officer and Head Developer, Mr. Damilola Jegede said: “Nairabox is pretty safe. We know that in the modern days and age, everyone worries about security. Security is at the heart of Nairabox, which is the beginning and end of the product. Nairabox is encrypted from end to end. We made sure to mitigate every form of security threat, by encrypting all transactions from end to end, from when you do it on the mobile app itself to the transportation to the server, and from there to financial processing and back. It’s all encrypted to ensure that it’s tamper proof.”
