Geegpay by Raenest August 2025 Roundup

They say to whom much is given, much is expected, and August reminded us of that, as well as what it means to take the bull by the horns. To step onto a bigger stage and play like you belong there. That same spirit carried Geegpay through the month of August. We’ve pushed forward, broken new ground, and shown what happens when preparation meets courage. We’re more than thrilled to bring you our Geegpay by Raenest August Roundup. Get comfortable with your tea or coffee, and let’s get into the details.

‍
Africa is at a turning point. The conversations that shape our future can no longer happen elsewhere; they must happen here, with the people building it. This is why we created Raenest Exchange.

It is more than a conference; it is a catalyst. A place where knowledge, ambition, and capital meet. Where someone’s hard-won lesson becomes another’s insight. Where investors find their next investment, founders find partners, and freelancing professionals find the spark that propels their career forward.

On October 9 in Lagos, Nigeria, some of the most impactful voices in freelancing, business, and investment will gather in Lagos, including leaders from Upwork, investors from QED and Norrsken22, and professionals who have built multi-million dollar careers. Together, they will share ideas, strategies, and insights you will not find anywhere else. There will also be great food, flowing drinks, and music that will keep you moving, so be sure to wear danceable shoes. 

For the most important part, we will be making a groundbreaking announcement you will not want to miss. If you’re yet to RSVP, you should, as seats are limited.

What would you become if nothing held you back? If the world around you stretched wider with every step, and every move you made carried a ripple of possibility?

The answer this question brings to heart, is the essence of our Raenest x Adidas collaboration. It’s about having the courage to imagine anything, no matter how ridiculous and the grit to be anything. Through this partnership, you can enjoy up to 15% off select Adidas outfits. It’s a small boost toward whatever comes next, and a reminder that you don’t have to pay full price to keep showing up. If you’re yet to take advantage of this offer, visit the Perks page via web to do so today.

Still on the subject of opportunities designed to give you an edge, let’s not forget Raenest Perks. It is our way of making sure freelancers, entrepreneurs, remote workers, and professionals like you who are working across borders have access to benefits that actually fit how they live and work.

From healthcare and logistics to hosting, relocation support, and learning platforms, Raenest Perks is built to lighten the load and make room for what matters most: your growth.

If you haven’t taken advantage of it yet, now’s the time. Simply log in to your Geegpay account on the web, head to the Perks section, and redeem the offers available to you. They are exclusive to Geegpay users and not open to the public, so if you don’t have a Geegpay account, create one today.

Back-to-school season always comes with a long list: tuition, supplies, pocket money, and all the extras in between. With Geegpay, you do not have to worry about how to get the money across borders.

We now support transfers to even more destinations, including the UK, US, all EU countries, Rwanda, Nigeria, Kenya, China, Brazil, India, Egypt, the Philippines, Pakistan, Senegal, Uganda, Tanzania, and the Central African Republic.

Whether you are paying school fees in the UK, sending an allowance to family in Kenya, or covering living costs for a sibling studying in India, Geegpay makes it seamless. No multiple platforms. No inflated fees. Just one reliable place to handle all your global payments. Start sending money with Geegpay today.

In this episode of Geegpay Diaries, we sit with Bruno, the Einstein of marketing, to learn 5 Proven Strategies to Get Clients as a Freelancer. If you’re someone who is looking to build their freelancing career into a future-proof business, this is a session you should definitely check out.

In addition to giving strategies to help you excel in freelancing, we also put out more content to help you thrive as a remote professional. From 9 tips to help you network at tech events, 10 platforms you can use to make money online, to a guide on how to build your network as a remote professional. We also have the Geegpay Freelancer Toolkit to help you break into the freelancing space.

At Geegpay, we are always looking for ways to take the burden off you, whether through giveaways, discounts, or exclusive perks. In addition to our data and airtime payment discount, this August, we treated 20 lucky users to exclusive Adidas items, giving them a little extra joy as they continue building their goals. If you missed out, this is the best time to follow us on all our socials (X @geegpay_hq, Instagram @geegpayhq, LinkedIn @Geegpay by Raenest, and TikTok @geegpayhq) so you don’t miss out again.

Still on giveaways, congratulations to all our winners from last month. Twenty lucky listeners walked away with 250 Upwork Connects each, funded straight to their Geegpay virtual dollar cards. We hope you are putting those Connects to good use 😉.

Our users have shared their thoughts about using Geegpay, and we are proud of the experiences they've had with us. We would love to hear from you as well. Your feedback helps us grow and continue building what you enjoy. If you have had a moment with us worth sharing, kindly leave us a review on our socials. We look forward to reading it. And if you're yet to create a Geegpay account, now's the best time to do so.

This month felt like the perfect time for a little throwback, so Bella decided to revisit the movies, books, music, and shows that shaped her mood, sparked her curiosity, or just made her laugh when she needed it most. Here are Bella’s gems of the month.
