Launching Nigeria’s National Digital Alphanumeric Postcode System is the first step. Its true impact will come as we weave it into how we live, do business, connect with one another and deliver services across every corner of our country. Every postcode should mean something tangible: a customer reached, a delivery completed, a community better served, or emergency help arriving where it is needed. In the days, weeks and months ahead, my office will work with @NipostNgn and key actors across government, business and the technology community to embed this new national asset in our everyday lives. So to our developers and innovators, let’s build on it. The API ( You can find documentation here - docs.postcode.gov.ng) provides a foundation for integrating the postcode into the products and services Nigerians use every day. So go on and register your organisation: dashboard.postcode.gov.ng/re… and start building. To access the API: 1. Create an organisation account. 2. Submit your Know Your Business (KYB) documentation. 3. Request API access, specifying the access level you need. 4. Receive staging tokens to develop and test your integration. 5. Complete User Acceptance Testing (UAT) with NIPOST’s technical and compliance teams, where required. 6. Receive production tokens and go live. I also want to hear your ideas. How can we embed the alphanumeric postcode in commerce, transport, healthcare, agriculture, emergency response and community life? What would you build, and what problem would it solve?
