Mr. Adedunni Jeremiah Mayowa, an entrepreneur and the CEO of JeroidNG, a leading e-commerce platform has disclosed how he got into cryptocurrency business and launched his company five years ago.
Jeremiah’s invention has now become a top platform that trades unused iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play gift cards and the company also engages in cryptocurrency business.
According to the founder, his company was founded to createa non existing platforms for cryptocurrency traders in Nigeria do their trading with ease.
Jeremiah said his mission is to build a platform that would give the growing number of cryptocurrency users in Nigeria a safe and secure place to not just trade but get paid instantly.
“JeroidNG was founded in late 2017, when I saw a need in the cryptocurrency space whereby people don’t have the right plug to trade their coins.
“Before then, I was fulling into blogging which I started in 2013, called Jeroid Reporters till in 2017. So the little money I made off blogging, I invested in cryptocurrency. I came across crypto when I wanted to invest in a program more like pyramid scheme but to register in the program you have to register with bitcoin and that was how I knew about cryptocurrency.
“So from there I started buying gift cards from people and sell to other clients, that was how the brand started coming up and we are here today,” he said.
JeroidNG which set out to solve the problem of not only having to look for a trusted place to trade but also trading at the best rate available, also has an app that enables its users to either trade or convert these valuable assets to cash all at their fingertips.
The E-commerce giant has grown from what started as an idea to a team of over 20 employees within its Headquarters in Lagos with a list of Nigerian celebrities as their ambassadors.
