About the Company

Otapay is a rising fintech platform in Nigeria offering seamless bill payments, data subscriptions, airtime recharges, and airtime to cash conversion. Although the product was innovative, Otapay operated in one of the most saturated digital finance markets, competing with long-established brands. The company needed not just visibility but immediate trust and authority in a highly skeptical and competitive space.

The Brief

Otapay’s management team reached out to Pulseford after acknowledging gaps in both visibility and user trust. During several in-depth consultations, it became clear that their current digital infrastructure wasn’t strong enough to break through the noise.

What they needed wasn’t just a website facelift or a few social media posts, it was a 360-degree digital marketing overhaul backed by strategy, storytelling, and execution.

So we built it.

What We Did

Strategic 360° Digital Marketing Blueprint

We began with Pulseford’s signature full-stack brand strategy session, mapping out a custom 360° digital growth roadmap. This included everything from tech infrastructure to emotional user journey mapping—geared towards helping Otapay win hearts and drive conversions.

Website Redesign for Speed, Security & UX

After we carefully analyze their Competitors, We rebuilt Otapay’s landing page from scratch. The new design was responsive, lightning-fast, mobile-optimized, and security-hardened—creating a trustworthy first impression for users and search engines alike.

Technical & On-Page SEO Optimization

Our SEO specialists dove deep into code-level fixes, schema markups, site speed optimization, metadata structuring, and internal linking strategies. Otapay’s on-site SEO score jumped from poor to excellent, and crawlability by search engines improved significantly.

Evergreen Content Marketing & Emotional Storytelling

In a country like Nigeria where emotions heavily influence consumer behavior, we created highly engaging, trust-building stories around Otapay’s services. Our team of journalists and creative writers published three evergreen blog posts strategically tailored to three of their new services. These were designed not just to rank—but to resonate.

Media PR & Authority Boosting

We amplified awareness with national press coverage in top-tier media outlets including: ThisDay, The Guardian, The Nation, Vanguard, The Sun etc. These articles positioned Otapay as a credible, emerging solution in the Nigerian fintech space.

Social Media Management

From content planning and visuals to post scheduling and engagement, our SMM efforts led to an 80% increase in social followers across Instagram, and Facebook.

Email & Bulk SMS Reactivation Campaign

We ran a segmented email and SMS reactivation campaign targeting previously inactive users. Using smart messaging and irresistible call-to-actions, we successfully re-engaged over 40% of dormant accounts.

Link Building & Domain Authority Boost

We developed a high-authority backlink strategy targeting trusted media platform, and industry blogs. Within 60 days, Otapay's domain authority rose steadily, improving its chances of ranking higher for competitive fintech keywords.
