FAAN Partners with Paystack to Launch Cashless Payment Solution

The Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), in partnership with Paystack, has rolled out OPERATION GO CASHLESS, a cashless contactless payment solution across all airports beginning with Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, and Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

With effect from September 29, 2025, all payments at FAAN's revenue points, including airport Access Gates, Car Parks, FAAN VIP and Protocol Lounges will go cashless. With this development, FAAN will be phasing out the collection of cash at these points. Travelers and airport users will now enjoy fast and seamless services by using a secure contactless payment option.

This initiative is in response to the growing demand for safe, modern, and transparent payment systems while ensuring Nigeria's airports remain aligned with global digital trends. By reducing reliance on cash, FAAN aims to enhance efficiency, improve revenue assurance, and deliver a better customer experience at our airports.

To ease the transition, FAAN had deployed trained brand ambassadors at access gates and around the terminals to guide users, assist with onboarding, provide demonstrations, and answer questions they may have.

In addition, passengers can obtain a FAAN Go Cashless Card at any airport access gate in Lagos and Abuja. After collection, users are encouraged to activate and fund their cards immediately by visiting www.gocashless.faan.gov.ng.

In a statement signed by its management, FAAN says it remains committed to continuous improvement and will expand this cashless policy to other airports nationwide in phases.
