Lagos Kano
Escrow-protected freight.

Nigeria's longest major freight corridor — linking Lagos port operations to Kano's massive wholesale markets, textile industry, and groundnut and grain distribution networks. Every load is escrow-funded before the truck moves. GPS-tracked from pickup to delivery. Carriers paid same business day.

How It Works

From posting to paid delivery on this corridor.

1

Shipper posts the load

Cargo details, pickup address in Lagos, delivery address in Kano, and base freight price entered on the platform.

2

Dispatcher claims and matches

A verified Dispatcher claims the load, negotiates the freight rate, and assigns a KYC-verified carrier with an approved truck and driver.

3

Shipper funds escrow

Shipper tops up wallet via bank payment. Funds go to the BtSh Freight Escrow account at the partner bank — locked until GPS milestones confirm.

Held at licensed Nigerian bank
4

Pickup in Lagos — 80% released

Driver activates GPS session token. Confirms pickup. GPS milestone recorded. 80% of carrier freight released same business day.

80% same business day
5

Delivery in Kano — 20% released

The Problem This Solves

Why this corridor needed BtSh

Long-distance routes expose carriers to the highest unpaid freight risk. Shippers have no live visibility across 1,100 km.
