NIPOST Address Verification System (AVS) is a technology platform that empowers individuals, organisations and government institutions to verify physical addresses and the identity of the occupants or business that resides at the address in a sustainable and commercially viable manner.

One of the reasons 65% of Nigerians are unbanked or underbanked is their lack of proof of address even with a government-issued ID. NIPOST AVS turn the address verification challenge on its head, to create a viable platform that can create hundreds of thousands of sustainable jobs.

Any qualified individual with a smartphone, internet access and NIPOST AVS agent app can join the community and have a paying job.

This initiative contributes to the SDG by creating a job role for the world we live in today, for every youth in Nigeria regardless of their gender, disabilities or tribe. NIPOST AVS creates an insatiable demand for the supply of able and educated youths across to country to earn a living wage simultaneously doing a collaborative work for the overall good of the country.
