Moove, a Nigerian-born mobility fintech that provides revenue-based vehicle financing to gig drivers, is on track to become a unicorn with plans to raise an extra $300 million in equity capital.
The mobility fintech has tripled revenue in a year, reaching $360 million annually, and intends to raise $300 million in equity to boost its valuation above $1 billion.
With the money, Moove, which now has operations in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia, intends to strengthen its operations and broaden its global fleet alliances.

With an emphasis on growing its electric vehicle (EV) fleet offerings and breaking into new markets, such as the U.S., where it oversees EV fleets for Waymo’s autonomous ride-hailing service, this most recent funding round will specifically support Moove’s strategic expansion.
Co-founders Jide Odunsi and Ladi Delano founded Moove in 2020, and it introduced a novel revenue-based car financing scheme that allowed gig drivers to purchase cars without having to pay cash up front.
