Pay4Me Launches Study Abroad Mentorship Program for Nigerians

Written by Ernest EmekaPublished on May 24th, 2022

Pay4Me, the cross-border payment platform for educational and travel-related fees, is launching a study abroad mentorship program to help well-qualified Nigerians. The program will provide participants with tailored information, funding, and support to study abroad in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Studying abroad can be a life-changing and enriching experience, but it does not come cheap. However, our company aims to make it easier for well-qualified candidates through this new mentorship program.

Pay4Me is opening up the program to the general public after a 12-month successful private beta test. We believe this program will be a game-changer for well-qualified candidates struggling with their migration journey due to a lack of information, guidance, and funding. We hope the program will soon be able to start supporting people across Africa and other developing countries.

Pay4Me and partners across North America, Europe, and Asia are excited about the future of this program and look forward to recruiting excellent students and professionals.
