G2PX in Nigeria
To provide assistance related to COVID-19 and to inform future shock response, Nigeria piloted digital delivery of a cash transfer program geared toward reaching the urban informal. The pilot made use of mobile technology and direct deposit, but it relied on in-person site visits and struggled to make full use of available data, hindering implementation speed. Low account penetration among informal populations and inadequate access points, among other issues plaguing the financial ecosystem, added to sluggish rollouts during pilots. While the program evolved significantly over time, incorporating the lessons from the pilots, the lack of monitoring and evaluation data prevent a full understanding of its ultimate effectiveness.

| description |
To provide assistance related to
COVID-19 and to inform future shock response, Nigeria
piloted digital delivery of a cash transfer program geared
toward reaching the urban informal. The pilot made use of
mobile technology and direct deposit, but it relied on
in-person site visits and struggled to make full use of
available data, hindering implementation speed. Low account
penetration among informal populations and inadequate access
points, among other issues plaguing the financial ecosystem,
added to sluggish rollouts during pilots. While the program
evolved significantly over time, incorporating the lessons
from the pilots, the lack of monitoring and evaluation data
prevent a full understanding of its ultimate effectiveness. |
