CupidFaces Technologies

About Us

Technology built on
community.

CupidFaces Technologies is a community-focused technology company that builds digital platforms to connect people with local businesses, events, and opportunities across Nigeria.

Founded by Nicholas Olaniyi, CupidFaces began as a project to help neighbours connect and local businesses thrive — starting with community hubs in Akure and Ibadan.

Seeing how much a simple business listing could change someone's day inspired the expansion into NaijaBased.fun, now Nigeria's go-to digital directory — and GymProHub, a dedicated CRM for the fitness industry.
