Who it's for

Solo or 2-person team in Nigeria targeting parents aged 25-45 in major cities who want affordable family activities; build by partnering with cinema chains, theme parks, restaurants, bowling alleys.

How to build it

1. Map 20-30 family venues in Lagos/Abuja willing to offer 15-25% discounts (cinemas first—high foot traffic, simple economics) 2. Build a basic mobile-web app: venue listings, discount codes, booking confirmation via SMS/WhatsApp 3. Launch with free app + SMS-verified user base; partner venues track redemptions via simple dashboard 4. Negotiate commission (10-20% of discounted spend) directly with venue owners 5. Expand to 3-5 new cities once Lagos unit economics are proven (6-8 weeks in)

Suggested stack

Your edge as a builder from anywhere

Nigerian venues have zero digital discount infrastructure—they use WhatsApp groups and poster ads. You're the first aggregator. Parents spend heavily on children's entertainment but use cash; SMS reach is 100%. Paystack/Remita payouts mean venue owners get paid same-day. No international competitor has localized here yet. Build in Naira economics first, then expand regionally to Ghana/Kenya.
