Naming
The new name takes inspiration from the word “numbers” — often underrated and yet at the centre of how we process information. For most businesses, numbers are the most basic way to identify problems, define goals, measure growth, and make money.

Previously known as Kudi, one of Nigeria’s leading agency banking FinTech startups, the team at Nomba decided to scale their offerings to provide tools and services for businesses to manage payments and operations.

The Logo
The symbol is a slightly abstract representation of cross-road signs — typically seen in the middle of road intersections across the country. It communicates the idea that regardless of what your payment needs are, Nomba can provide and guide you to the right solution.
Sonic Identity
The Nomba sonic identity was inspired by the familiar bits and pieces of Nigerian memories that included numbers. Designed in collaboration with talented musician and producer, Damilare Afolabi, we created an album of sounds that helps Nomba unique communicate its brand via channels that support audio (social media, radio, television, etc).
Visual System
We created visual devices to communicate a unique identity for Nomba everywhere — across colour, typography, patterns, and imagery — easily recognised by anyone.

Brand Launch
As we prepared for the launch of the new brand, we designed and developed the Nomba website — understanding that it is the HQ of any brand’s presence on the internet. We also worked closely with the Nomba team to create assets for the product design.

Praise Philemon
We were pleased with the extra length FourthCanvas went to understand our evolution and bring it to life with the story, look and feel that rightly captures our mission. The immediate proud feeling from our employees and merchants captures it all. There was a renewed energy with which everyone was proud to be a part of this.

Chief Executive Officer.
