Gaining Momentum

PackPay is a verifiable B2B e-commerce and logistics platform operating in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, backed by CIC Integrated Services (an offshore catering supplier). Search confirms the recent launch of their 'Osusu' BNPL app and active operations since 2021. However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing massive exaggerations ('most people have used my product', 'reach: everyone') and ambiguous financial data ('17000000 marketcap' without currency). While the underlying business appears legitimate with a significant team size (125), the score is heavily penalized for the lack of verifiable user data in the submission and the regional nature of the current operations.
