The development is expected to help reposition Disha in terms of driving revenue for creators to sustain the business.
The trio of Evans Akanno, Rufus Oyemade, and Blessing Abeng created Disha as a platform targeting global content creators and influencers in 2019.
It provides users with tools to create a one-page site to curate and share links, content, portfolios, and a system to receive payments.
