MonieWorld, a product of Moniepoint Inc, has announced filmmaker and actress Funke Akindele as its new brand ambassador, explaining that the partnership is rooted in shared values of progress, reliability and strong connection with Nigerians living abroad.
The company said the collaboration aligns with its mission to support Nigerians in the diaspora who juggle financial responsibilities across borders while staying closely connected to home.
According to MonieWorld, its services are designed to address what it described as a “dual financial life,” where Nigerians abroad earn and spend in foreign countries but still support family members, businesses and obligations in Nigeria.
The platform aims to make these cross-border financial activities seamless by offering instant transactions, competitive exchange rates and dependable remittance services, particularly for Nigerians living in the United Kingdom.
Chief executive officer of MonieWorld, Ravi Jakhodia, said Funke Akindele was chosen because her personal and professional journey reflects the values the company stands for. He noted that her career growth, consistency and influence across borders made her a natural fit for the brand.
“Progress doesn’t start until it moves with ambition, with people, and with purpose,” Jakhodia said. “Funke Akindele embodies this principle.
Her career reflects the same values we’ve built MonieWorld on: consistency, credibility and an unwavering connection to the communities that shaped her journey. From dominating the Nigerian box office to breaking records in the UK and Ireland, her excellence travels.”
He added that MonieWorld was built for people who are creating lives across borders while remaining deeply connected to Nigeria, describing Akindele as a strong representation of this reality.
According to him, many Nigerians abroad are navigating new systems in foreign countries but still feel a strong responsibility to support family and investments back home.
MonieWorld explained that the platform builds on Moniepoint’s existing financial infrastructure, which has already established itself in Nigeria’s financial services space.
The company said feedback since its launch has highlighted the speed and reliability of its remittance services, qualities it believes are essential for users managing time-sensitive financial commitments.
Reacting to the partnership, Funke Akindele expressed excitement about joining the MonieWorld family, saying the collaboration resonates with her personal values and career journey. She described the brand as one that understands the importance of growth rooted in hard work and trust.
“I’ve always believed in growth that is rooted in hard work and reliability,” she said. “MonieWorld reflects those same values by making sure that distance isn’t a barrier to progress.
What makes this partnership meaningful is our shared understanding of what it means to build something that serves people and makes a positive impact in the lives of Nigerians in the diaspora.”
She added that the idea of giving people the freedom to build their lives wherever they are strongly aligns with her own experiences and the stories she tells through her work.
Also speaking, MonieWorld’s head of growth, Dolapo Omotoso, said the company is focused on supporting customers who are building lives outside Nigeria while remaining financially connected to home. He reiterated that the brand is committed to simplifying cross-border financial management for Nigerians abroad.
MonieWorld was officially launched in April 2025, and the company said it has continued to gain traction among users seeking reliable and fast remittance solutions.
With Funke Akindele as its brand ambassador, MonieWorld says it hopes to further strengthen trust and expand its reach within the Nigerian diaspora community.
