Why this works
Most small business owners are tired of ads that cost money and bring nothing. A free listing that sends real local clients is an easy yes. Your job is simply to make the introduction.
No signup fee, no subscription, no contract. New profiles also get 2 welcome credits to try a lead.
Matching uses their specialty and the states they actually serve, among 37 states and the capital territory. No more chasing jobs they cannot do.
They see the project summary for free and the price before unlocking. They pay credits only for the leads they want.
Leads start around $4.15 with the best-value credit pack, instead of paying for ad clicks that may never turn into a call.
They get the client's own phone number and email, then talk directly. There is no middleman and no commission on their jobs.
Unused credits stay in the account. There is no monthly minimum, and the optional Pro plan can be cancelled any time.
How you earn
Join in two minutes. Your personal link is ready right away, with shortcuts to the sign-up and pricing pages.
Use the scripts below. We remember your referral for 60 days after they click.
They create a free profile. When they start a paid subscription, the referral becomes a commission.
After the 30-day review period, it is yours to collect once you reach $25.
Concrete examples
Think of the people you already pay, know or walk past. Every one of these trades appears on naija.agency.
Law & Compliance
Why they say yes: Foreign companies need a local lawyer in the first weeks of any project, and the brief tells the lawyer exactly what the client needs.
Money, Tax & Payroll
Why they say yes: Every company that opens in Nigeria needs local books and payroll early. A listing puts them in front of owners who are just getting started.
Language & Translation
Why they say yes: Freelance linguists live on new clients. A free listing is a new channel next to the marketplaces they already use.
Content & Writing
Why they say yes: Brands entering the Nigerian market ask for original content, not translations. Writers can be found by name.
Software & Web
Why they say yes: Freelancers get steady work without bidding on global marketplaces where they compete on price alone.
Marketing & Growth
Why they say yes: Companies pick a local marketer in the same breath as a launch date. A listing puts them in the room early.
Media & Creative
Why they say yes: Campaigns need local voices, video and images. Creators are used to hunting for clients and welcome a free listing.
Customer Support
Why they say yes: Support teams are bought by the month, so one lead can turn into a long contract. Every brief names the state and the size of the team.
Admin & Assistants
Why they say yes: Remote Nigerian talent is in demand. They are always filling their calendars, and a free profile costs nothing to try.
Teaching & Coaching
Why they say yes: Personal and often solo. They win clients one by one, so a free listing is a free new channel.
Trade & Logistics
Why they say yes: Importers and exporters need logistics partners in the destination state, and these are high-value, repeat relationships.
Local Presence & Market Entry
Why they say yes: Their whole job is helping outsiders arrive. A listing helps companies and families find them before they land.
Where to find them
Groups for freelancers, expats, diaspora and business owners in Nigeria. Read the rules first, share once, and answer questions instead of just posting links.
Message translators, developers, accountants and consultants based in Nigeria. Be brief, be personal and always disclose your referral link.
Chambers of commerce, diaspora networks, alumni networks and professional associations such as the Bar, ICAN and trade guilds. Offer to present for five minutes.
Freelancer and founder meetups, co-working spaces, trade shows and diaspora events are full of solo professionals.
Teachers, translators and interpreters gather around language schools, cultural centers and university programs.
The accountant, the lawyer or the agent you already deal with in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Ibadan or Enugu. A personal introduction beats any ad.
Clients, newsletter readers, past colleagues and your own contacts. A personal note from someone they trust beats any ad.
Search "accountant Lagos" or "translator Abuja", then call or message. Unsolicited commercial email can break anti-spam laws in many countries, so prefer a call, a personal message or a public business account.
Your pitch kit
Three short scripts. They are honest, short and mention that you may earn a referral fee, which the Affiliate Terms require. Once you join, your personal link is filled in for you.
After you join you also get a personal QR code, printable flyers and one-tap WhatsApp sharing in your dashboard.
Hi, I'm [your name]. Quick question: do you want more clients who need specialists in Nigeria? There's a free directory called naija.agency. You list your business for free, and when someone posts a project that matches your trade and state, you see it. You pay a few credits only if you decide to unlock their phone number. I get a small referral fee if you subscribe to the paid plan, but the listing is free either way. Here's my link: [your personal link]

When they push back
That is good, and this does not replace it. Naija.agency is an extra channel where the client has already written down what they need. A free listing costs nothing to add.
Listing is free. Leads cost credits and the price is shown before unlocking. There is an optional Pro plan at $49 a month with premium placement and monthly credits. Nothing renews unless they choose a plan.
No, and never promise that. A project can go to several specialists and the client chooses. They pay for an introduction, not a job.
Creating a profile takes about five minutes. Offer to sit with them while they do it. Many owners will say yes if you make it easy.
Point to the site itself: public Terms, Privacy Policy and Specialist Terms, card payments through Stripe, and the fact that listing costs nothing.
No. There is no contract, no minimum and no obligation. They can stop any time.

Illustration only. A commission is earned once per business, when it pays its first subscription invoice, after the review period. Earnings are not guaranteed and depend on how many referred businesses subscribe.
Your affiliate account
Visitors, businesses referred and paying subscribers, all in one view.
In review, payable and paid balances, with each commission and its status.
Send people to the business sign-up, pricing or home page, or add ?ref= to any page address.
You choose how to be paid: PayPal, Interac e-Transfer, cheque or bank transfer. Payouts are sent by hand once your payable balance reaches $25. We may ask for your tax information and issue the tax slip required by law (for example a T4A).
Play fair
Say you may be paid for referrals. The scripts above already do.
Never promise jobs, income or rankings. No bulk unsolicited email or text messages.
You cannot earn on your own business or accounts you control.
Commissions are reviewed for 30 days so refunds and chargebacks are settled first.
