Digital startup launches platform to help send a wedding present

Nigerian startup Wedding Registry NG has reportedly launched its web platform that allows users to more easily give and receive wedding gifts. Reports on the activity of the startup shows the facility as an e-commerce website with a focus on wedding gifts.
According to its blueprint, Wedding Registry helps couples communicate their gift preferences to guests, while guests can easily select and pay for certain items.
Founded by Prince Iwendi and Daisy Okwa after they noticed a gap in the market, Wedding Registry is going up against the likes of Jumia and Konga but believes it stands apart due to its focused service delivery.
Although, industry experts have criticised its commission backing, noting that charging 10 per cent commission on all gifts purchased through the platform is on the high.
