Global web host Hostinger enters Nigeria with AI tools and Naira payments

2025/12/10 01:38

Hostinger, a global web hosting and website-building company, has launched in Nigeria, offering AI-powered website and business tools alongside Naira-based payments as it seeks to attract small businesses and entrepreneurs building an online presence.

The Lithuania-headquartered company will offer website building, hosting, and an AI assistant capable of automating content creation, domain registration, and e-commerce management.

Hostinger’s launch comes as Nigeria’s digital economy continues to expand, contributing about ₦7 trillion to GDP in Q1 2025 and supported by over 39 million micro, small, and medium enterprises. Many of these businesses still face hurdles such as limited digital skills, unreliable infrastructure, and high operational costs, which have slowed the adoption of dedicated websites. Hostinger says it will lower these barriers by offering automated tools, clearer pricing, and localised support.

“Nigeria is an important milestone for us,” said Eiviltas Paraščiakas, Head of communications at Hostinger. “Our goal is simple – give people fast, reliable, and fair tools so they can build and grow online with confidence. Our integrated suite of AI-powered products makes it easier for small business owners and creators to get online in minutes and stay focused on what matters: building their business.”

Nigerian users will have access to Hostinger’s website builder, WordPress, and VPS hosting, and AI tools, including Hostinger Reach, an automated email marketing platform, and Hostinger Horizons, an AI-powered website and web app builder. Its AI agent, Kodee, can automate technical tasks such as website migration, content generation, and managing the products of a customisable, open-source e-commerce platform called WooCommerce, reducing the need for developer expertise.

Hostinger said Kodee handled about 855,000 customer conversations in September 2025, resolving 76% of them automatically and saving the company more than €750,000 ($873,000) that month.

Hostinger now joins a growing market of web‑hosting companies serving Nigerian businesses and freelancers. Existing players in the space include telaHosting, GO54QServers, HostAfrica, and Truehost Nigeria, many of which offer local‑currency payments, domain registration, and hosting plans tailored to Nigerian SMEs.

He and several of his men explain how the system works in an interview near a former farmhouse in eastern Ukraine. The yard is littered with military equipment and junk, including the farmer’s much-worn living-room furniture, now arranged around a makeshift fire pit. Several stray cats and a mangy dog come and go as we talk. “We’ve improved our performance by a factor of 10,” the commander boasts. “We know that thanks to the drone points system, which measures how many men we kill and how much equipment we destroy.” After more than three and a half years of fighting, drones have transformed the battlefield in Ukraine. Every operation depends on uncrewed platforms, either to carry out the mission or protect soldiers. Units work with an increasingly varied drone arsenal—large and small devices, powered by rotors and fixed wings, guided by radio waves and fiber optic cable. Kyiv and Moscow are locked in a deadly technology race, constantly competing to counter the other side’s latest developments, and things change so fast that an wounded fighter returning to the front after just a few months away can no longer recognize his unit’s tactics. Estimates suggest that unmanned aerial vehicles are responsible for up to 80% of battlefield casualties. The top brass in Kyiv struggle to keep up with this innovation—both the…
