Helicarrier officially announces that it has today completed the signing of definitive agreements to acquire significant equity interest in Accrue.

As part of this agreement, Buycoins Basic will be transitioning into Accrue effective immediately.

“Embarking on this partnership underscores our dedication to democratising wealth building on the continent. Accrue has built the perfect wealth building tool for the internet powered African & we’re excited to bring that experience to 100k+ Buycoins users”

— Timi Ajiboye, CEO Helicarrier.

Helicarrier and Accrue have a long history together. Helicarrier was the very first investor in Accrue which was founded by ex-Helicarrier teammates. The mission to help Africans build wealth by leveraging transformational digital currency technology is a shared driving force for both companies.

Everything you love about Helicarrier culture and its products — ease of use, timely customer support, fantastic product sense, execution speed, technical chops, and tenacity in the face of adversity, are tenets we brought over to Accrue. We’re committed to these tenets forever.

— Clinton Mbah, Co-founder Accrue
