5/24/2022

 
Picture
Ridwan Egbeyemi is the CEO of Unboxd, a wishlist and crowdfunding platform that allows people looking to receive gifts for special occasions such as birthdays, weddings, graduations, etc, to create a wishlist of desired items and share with their loved ones who can also make cash contributions for each item on the list. His co-founder, Tolu Adesina, leads product and technology on the team.

The first user of the Unboxd MVP in September 2020 received 450,000 Nigerian Naira [US$1000+] as contributions to their wedding wishlist. After the success of this, the team spent 12 months refining the MVP before officially launching the app for public use in September 2021. Since then, the company has seen a month on month growth in birthday, wedding and Christmas wish lists. 20% of the wish lists in Unboxd are active with an average of N25,000 [$60+] in contributions which has led to over N2 million [$4,800+] in total cash gifts. To date, Unboxd has processed 50+ cash payouts.
