Bardge The infrastructure rail for wellness access in emerging markets.

In Nigeria, HMOs, banks, and employers all want to offer gym and spa access to their staff and members. The money is there. But 90% of gyms and spas operate entirely offline — no digital systems, no way to verify who walked in, and no automated payments. So institutions either don’t bother, or offer benefits so limited they are meaningless.

Bardge fixes this. We connect institutions to a network of over 1,000 verified gyms and spas through a single integration. Members get a digital pass on their phone and scan to check in. Providers get paid instantly. No paperwork, no phone calls, no 30-day waits.
In 12 months, built entirely on bootstrapped capital, we work with over 80% of Nigeria’s private health insurance companies, have 22,800+ active users, and have grown revenue 30% month on month through Q1 2026.

We earn from fees charged to institutions per pass issued and per visit, and from monthly software subscriptions paid by wellness providers. Our GMV run rate is $334K annuali
