One missed compliance gap can kill your funding round.

Fintech compliance isn’t a checkbox. It’s the infrastructure your investors, regulators, and enterprise clients demand before they trust you with their money.

Investors Demand It

Series A and beyond requires SOC 2 and PCI-DSS attestation. Without it, funding rounds stall, due diligence fails, and term sheets expire. We close gaps before the investor’s compliance team finds them.

The CBN Mandates It

CBN Circular BSD/DIR/PUB/LAB/019/002 mandates real-time AML monitoring, automated STR/CTR reporting, unified screening, and BVN/NIN integration. Non-compliance exposes your licence. The deadline doesn’t move.

Enterprise Clients Require It

No enterprise procurement team signs a contract without verified compliance documentation. SOC 2 and PCI-DSS attestation is the difference between a pilot and a signed MSA.

Late Remediation Costs 10×

Compliance gaps discovered during audit cost ten times more to fix than gaps closed in preparation. We find them first. We close them in infrastructure — not on paper.

Built for fintech. Executed by engineers who’ve done it inside CBN-regulated institutions.

Every StackWeaver engagement is led by senior compliance engineers — not junior analysts, not account managers. Our work is reviewed by specialists with real regulatory execution experience.

CBN AML/CFT Gap Analysis — NovaPay Financial Technologies Ltd. (Redacted)

This is a real engagement deliverable, redacted for confidentiality. Posture score, gap analysis, risk matrix, 30-day remediation roadmap, and commitment guarantee — all included in every Pre-Deal Sprint from $4,900.

Reviewed and verified by senior compliance engineers with Big 4 advisory backgrounds and CBN-regulated institution experience.

Why StackWeaver — not Vanta, not a Big 4 advisory, not in-house.

Not a SaaS tool

Vanta and Drata automate documentation. They don’t close gaps. They don’t build controls. They don’t coordinate auditors. They produce paperwork. We produce compliance.

Not Big 4 pricing

Big 4 advisory delivers senior expertise at $50K–$200K+ per engagement with 6–12 month timelines. We deliver the same calibre of engineer, the same rigour of output, at a fraction of the cost and in weeks — not months.

Not junior analysts

Every StackWeaver engagement is led by senior engineers. No handoffs to graduates. No templates applied blindly. Your compliance posture is built by people who have executed inside the institutions that regulate you.

Common questions.

Is this compliance consulting or execution?

It is execution. We do not stop at recommendations. We build the controls, test them, produce audit evidence, and close gaps in the operating environment so your team can pass diligence instead of explaining why it cannot.

Why not rely on Vanta or Drata alone?

Documentation tools help with evidence collection, but they do not design controls, remediate gaps, or coordinate a real audit workflow. For Nigerian fintechs, that difference matters because regulatory and investor scrutiny usually lands on the underlying control environment, not the checklist itself.

When should we start before diligence or funding?

The earlier the better. For most teams, we recommend starting 6–10 weeks before an audit window or funding milestone so there is time to fix control gaps and assemble evidence without rushing. This is especially important where CBN readiness, SOC 2, and PCI-DSS all converge.

Can one sprint cover multiple frameworks?

Yes. A well-run engagement can address CBN AML/CFT, SOC 2, PCI-DSS, and related controls in a coordinated way rather than treating each framework as a separate project. That is how mature fintechs reduce cost and avoid duplicated remediation work.

What does good fintech compliance execution look like?

It looks like clear ownership, tested controls, evidence that is current, and a roadmap that speaks to both regulators and investors. StackWeaver helps teams build that operating model in weeks rather than spending months stitching together advisory opinions.
