OUR PARTNERS
A NATURAL PART OF YOUR PRODUCT
A data renewal on the way to work. An electricity payment at home. A cable subscription before the weekend. Bring those everyday moments into the product you already built.
Give customers a place to buy data and pay bills alongside the financial services they already use.
Add bill payments to your portal or checkout. Keep your own interface, account experience and customer communication.
Use a shared authentication pattern across four services, with request examples in Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby and cURL.
MORE THAN AN API CALL
A customer needs data for the day. A household needs to renew its electricity. Give them a familiar place to get it done, without building every provider connection yourself.

Your integration needs to explain what happened after a customer taps Pay. Strongmb gives you references, transaction lookups and webhook events to connect each outcome to your order.

Discuss your integrationFROM THE TEAMS BUILDING WITH US
“We integrated Strongmb into our platform, and the experience has been impressive. The API is reliable, transactions are processed quickly, and whenever we have an enquiry, their team is always willing to assist.”
“When I discovered Strongmb, I contacted their team to discuss integration. Everything went smoothly, from the initial conversation to getting our application connected. Their SDK made the process much easier than we expected.”
“One thing I appreciate about Strongmb is their responsiveness. Even when we have technical questions, their team takes the time to explain things clearly. That kind of support makes a real difference when you're running a business.”
“As a developer, I've worked with several VTU APIs, and Strongmb has been one of the easier platforms to integrate. The documentation is straightforward, and the API responses are easy to work with.”
“We needed a dependable API provider to power data and airtime purchases on our platform. Strongmb has been a valuable integration partner, helping us serve our customers without having to build the vending infrastructure ourselves.”
“From our first conversation with the Strongmb team, the onboarding process was straightforward. They understood what we were trying to build and helped us get started without unnecessary delays.”
“Transaction speed was one of our biggest concerns when choosing an API provider. After integrating Strongmb, we've been pleased with the overall performance and how smoothly it fits into our existing system.”
“What stands out about Strongmb is that they treat us like a partner, not just another API customer. Their willingness to answer questions and work through integration challenges has made the experience worthwhile.”
“The Strongmb SDK saved us a lot of development time. Instead of spending days figuring out how everything works, we were able to focus on building our own product. The integration process was simple and well organized.”
“We were looking for a VTU API that was easy to integrate and supported by a responsive team. Strongmb delivered a positive experience from the beginning. We're happy with the integration and look forward to continuing the partnership.”
YOUR FIRST CONNECTION
Evaluate the API in your own stack. Start with an authenticated account request, then test purchases, failed outcomes and transaction lookups using documented sandbox fixtures.
const response = await fetch(
'https://sandbox.strongmb.ng/v1/user',
{
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.STRONGMB_API_KEY}`
}
}
);
const result = await response.json();
console.log(result);
