Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in Nasarawa State, like many across Nigeria, are increasingly adopting mobile payment platforms such as mobile wallets, QR code payments, and mobile banking apps to enhance customer experience and streamline transactions (Kew, 2024). This study aims to explore the impact of these mobile payment solutions on business revenue for SMEs in Nasarawa State.
