MTN Nigeria has launched a new app store in partnership with US-based app store developer, neXva. The App store will offer local and global apps — free and premium. Speaking on the innovation, MTN Nigeria’s Chief Marketing Officer, Larry Annetts said, “Our choice of neXva to deploy the MTN Nigeria NextApps store was informed by its robust tech platform and their internal team that is able to customise and localise the offering of the apps to suit our customers in Nigeria. This, for us is a key success factor for the NextApps store.” Co-founder and CEO of neXva, Brian J Friedman said “Bringing neXva’s app store platform to MTN Nigeria is a great opportunity for neXva. We are particularly pleased that deploying our app store technology was done with a highly curated selection of content that will for the first time bring apps to MTN’s many customers in Nigeria.” “We know that app store customers are looking for a localised experience in the depth and breadth of the apps offered. This informs why our content is always based on the lookout for the newer, best and most relevant apps that can bring MTN’s customers in Nigeria a very personalised catalogue of apps that is very relevant to their day-to-day lives,” neXva COO and co-founder, Shuan Zelber explained. The App store is initially for Android Smartphones. It supports “one-click” billing, enabling MTN customers to purchase apps through prepaid credit or their phone bill.
