In a move aimed at addressing unemployment and improving access to reliable services, a technology company, Zelink Technologies Nigeria, has launched Zelink360, a new digital platform designed to connect Nigerians with verified professionals and skilled artisans in their communities.
The platform is expected to help bridge a long-standing gap in Nigeria’s service sector by linking individuals who need services with professionals who possess the required skills but often struggle to reach potential customers.
Across the country, many Nigerians face the frustrating challenge of finding trustworthy artisans when something needs fixing. Whether it is electrical faults, plumbing issues, generator breakdowns, or the need for qualified home tutors, locating reliable professionals often requires numerous referrals, uncertain recommendations, and wasted time.
At the same time, thousands of skilled workers remain underutilised because they lack access to a structured marketplace where their services can easily be discovered.
Zelink360 seeks to solve both problems.
Developed by Zelink Technologies Nigeria, the platform allows service seekers to instantly connect with nearby verified professionals through a simple and convenient system powered by artificial intelligence. Instead of searching endlessly for contacts, users can simply send a message to the platform’s dedicated AI-powered WhatsApp number (08155693487) and get connected with professionals within their area.
The technology behind Zelink360 intelligently matches service requests with registered professionals, helping customers find reliable help quickly while giving artisans direct access to job opportunities.
According to the developers, the initiative is also designed to support economic empowerment by giving skilled workers a digital platform to promote their services and expand their reach.
“Many talented artisans and professionals in Nigeria possess valuable skills but lack the visibility and digital tools needed to connect with customers consistently,” a spokesperson for Zelink Technologies Nigeria said. “Zelink360 is designed to give these professionals a trusted platform where they can register, get verified, and gain access to real service requests from people who need their expertise.”
The platform supports a wide range of everyday services including electricians, plumbers, AC technicians, home tutors, Islamic tutors, cleaning services, carpenters, appliance repair technicians, generator repair specialists, and CCTV installation experts.
To ensure trust and reliability, professionals who join the platform undergo a verification process before they can begin receiving service requests.
The pilot phase of Zelink360 is currently launching in Abuja, where the company has begun actively onboarding and registering artisans and professionals across different service categories.
Residents of the Federal Capital Territory will be the first to benefit from the platform as it begins connecting households and businesses with verified professionals within the city.
At the same time, artisans and service providers in Abuja are being encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity by registering on the platform and becoming part of the growing network of verified professionals.
According to the company, the Abuja pilot will serve as the foundation for a broader rollout across other major Nigerian cities in the near future.
“We are starting with Abuja as our pilot city, where we are currently onboarding professionals and artisans,” the company explained. “Our goal is to expand to other cities across Nigeria in the near future, creating a nationwide network of trusted professionals that Nigerians can access easily.”
Industry observers believe that platforms like Zelink360 could play a meaningful role in modernizing Nigeria’s informal service sector while helping skilled workers access more consistent income opportunities.
As Nigeria continues to embrace digital solutions that improve everyday life, initiatives like Zelink360 demonstrate how technology can be used to simplify access to services while also creating new economic opportunities for hardworking professionals.
For Nigerians seeking reliable services, connecting with a verified professional is now as simple as sending a WhatsApp message to 08155693487.
