Nigerian insurtech startup Myka has raised an undisclosed pre-seed funding round from investors including Ventures Platform, TLcom, Shola Akinlade, co-founder of Paystack; Ridwan Olalere, founder of LemFi; and Olumide Soyombo, founder of Voltron Capital.
Founded in 2025 by serial tech entrepreneur Sim Shagaya, Muritala Ahmed, and Oluwadamilola Okenla, Myka is a licensed digital insurance broker that enables consumers and SMEs to discover, compare, and purchase insurance products from multiple providers in real time.
The startup aims to address Nigeriaâs low insurance penetration by improving distribution through digital and offline channels that customers already use.
Working with leading underwriters and under the regulatory oversight of Nigeriaâs National Insurance Commission (NAICOM), Myka offers coverage across categories, including health, vehicles, mobile phones, homes, and businesses, with a mission to expand access to financial protection at scale.
