Tech startups are crowdsourcing funds for a COVID-19 Stimulus package. They are giving up to 10K.

Who is WeAreTogether.ng

According to a paragraph from their official site, The people behind WeAreTogether are tech entrepreneurs who can not sit by and do nothing while the world falls apart. Using technology developed by their companies and the power of network, they are crowdsourcing a fiscal stimulus for Nigeria. WeAreTogether is not an NGO or a charity.

How it works

People that have the resources can donate on the platform (International donations are possible too). While those who need help can apply for 10,000 Naira on the website. WeAreTogether requires BVN and account number and makes payments instantly as soon as request is approved. They collect BVN because it is unique per person and this will help them support people and prevent one person from applying multiple times with multiple Account numbers.

If you wish to read more about how the selection process is done you can check the FAQ section on their website https://wearetogether.ng

WeAreTogether.ng is not a fraud or scam, they are backed by top Nigerian startups like hotels.ng, Paystack, future.africa, Accounteer and others, These brands are well known with physical offices in Nigeria.

Extra
For those shouting scam, I do not work for WeAreTogether but it's easy to tell you that it is no scam. CEOs of top Nigerian tech startups like hotels.ng, paystack, Co-founder of Andela and so on back this initiative.
This is their way of trying to use their resources and influence to help people during this difficult times. Our government doesn't seem to be doing enough, maybe they are the scam.

Funny how your posts didn't gather attention, more importantly so many opay issues left unresolved


Pay stack, hotel ng etc can partner with you are together, pays tack is payment processor so every card transaction to provide help is approved by them in exchange for fees x doesn't mean they partnered or own it


Personally I don't believe this is real

Men brother your oversabi ehn. Look at how you are spelling paystack set, like a real amateur in tech and innovation. Be making noise and misleading others for the mean time. Hope you find civilisation soon.

If they employed you for pr, you suck

My only error is not writing pay stack as paystack?

Who we are is supposed to contain name of so called tech firms, CEO, partners etc

Oh you can't disburse funds but you want donation on the site?
Account name is better angel

No customer care number or chat bot to ask questions from

Looks all shady to me

You do suck a lot, my point has been made

Your ignorance is export quality. Who is asking you to make donations? Are you even sure you read this topic before commenting? I am beginning to get an idea of the source of your ignorance.

Last bullet, I can see you are a Buharist, apologies to myself for wasting my energy answering you.
