The people behind it
Built for Lagos,
by us
Credentia is free for everyone in Lagos. If it has saved you a trip, a phone call, or a bribe, buying us jollof helps keep it that way.
Ade
Product & Research
Ade spent years watching friends and family lose time and money to outdated document information: wrong offices, wrong fees, wrong forms. Credentia is his answer to that problem.
Femi
Design & Engineering
Ade came to Femi with a problem, and since they are both designers and builders, Femi helped turn the idea into a working product. Together they spotted a significant gap in how document information is shared, and they are doing their best to fix it in the ways they can.

Why we built this
The information you need to get a passport, register your NIN, or get into university exists. It is just scattered across government websites that are rarely updated, WhatsApp groups passing around outdated screenshots, and agents who charge you for access to things that are supposed to be public.
We wanted one place where you could type what you are trying to do and get a straight answer: what you need, what it costs, how long it takes, and where to go. No sign-up, no subscription, no stress.
Lagos first because we know it best. The rest of Nigeria next. Everything verified by people who have actually done the process recently.

Buy us jollof
Credentia costs money to run: hosting, domain, and the hours we spend keeping every checklist accurate. A plate of jollof goes a long way.
