Terms of use

Last updated: 11 October 2026

These terms apply when you use the N-Way app or nways.ng. By using N-Way, you agree to them.

Who provides N-Way

N-Way is provided by NWays Limited Liability Company. Contact: hello@nways.ng.

Drive safely; you are in charge

• Directions, lanes, speed limits, road reports and travel times are guidance only. Roads, signs and conditions change. Always follow the road, traffic signs, the police and the law, and use your own judgement.
• Don't handle your phone while driving or riding. Set your route before you set off, or let a passenger do it.
• Okada and walking routes may use roads where those are restricted, for example okada bans in parts of Lagos. Check local rules before you go.

Postcodes and map information

Postcodes come from NIPOST, and maps from OpenStreetMap and other sources, plus contributions from people using N-Way. We work to keep them accurate, but we can't promise every postcode, place, entrance or road is correct or up to date.

Your account

You can use N-Way without an account, or sign in with Apple or Google. Keep your phone secure. You can delete your account at any time in the app or by email (see delete your account).

What you contribute

• Entrance photos, entrances, road reports and answers must be honest and taken or made by you. Don't upload photos of people where they can be identified, private spaces, or anything offensive or unlawful.
• You keep any rights you have in what you contribute, and you give N-Way a free, worldwide, permanent licence to use, show, adapt and share it as part of the service.
• Walk views: record only on foot (never while driving or riding), only along public paths and shared spaces, and don't film inside homes or private compounds, or film people on purpose. Faces and number plates are blurred and every walk view is reviewed before it's published; we may reject one or ask you to record it again. Points are awarded when a walk view is approved.
• Ratings must be honest and your own: rate places you actually went to, once, and never in return for payment, a discount or a favour, or to harm a competitor. Don't rate your own business or one you work for. We may remove ratings, points and accounts that look fake or coordinated.
• We may remove contributions, and limit or close accounts, that break these terms or harm others.

Points and free access

Map points thank you for contributing. They have no cash value. Some free features depend on contributing back, such as a photo of a building's entrance when you arrive; the app explains when.

Fair use

Don't copy, scrape, resell or rebuild N-Way's maps, data or app, interfere with the service, or use it to harm, track or harass anyone.

Liability

N-Way is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, we are not responsible for losses from relying on directions, map information or other people's contributions, or from the service being unavailable. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under Nigerian consumer protection law that can't be limited.

Advertising on N-Way

• What you may advertise. Your own lawful business at a building you have the right to advertise. No adult content, gambling, betting, weapons, tobacco or vaping, political or religious campaigning, unlicensed medicines or financial products, hate, or claims that mislead (fake discounts, fake reviews). Nothing that copies another brand.
• Your website (Learn more). A website you add must be https, belong to you or the business advertised, and match the ad. It may not mislead, impersonate anyone, ask for passwords or payment details under false pretences, or carry malware. We check it at review, can remove it or stop the ad if it changes for the worse, and send people there through our own link, which counts taps.
• Review. We review every ad before it runs, usually within a day. We can ask for changes, refuse an ad, or stop one that breaks these terms. If we refuse an ad before it runs, we refund it. If you change an ad after we ask, you pay only any extra cost.
• Price and delivery. You pay up front through PalmPay, by length, days, area and reach, from ₦5,000. We spread your views evenly over the days you bought and follow our safety and fairness limits (how often one person sees an ad, no video while driving). The views shown before you pay are an estimate. If a campaign ends below 90% of its estimate, we add the difference to your N-Way credit for your next campaign.
• Data you send us. With the Conversions API or offer codes you may tell us that a click ID or code led to a visit, sale or enquiry, with its value. You must not send personal data about your customers (names, phone numbers, emails, account numbers, BVN or NIN). Keep your API keys secret and revoke any that leak. We may suspend keys that send personal data or false conversions.
• Results. Reports show totals only, never who saw your ad, and hide any group smaller than five people.

Privacy

How we handle your information is set out in our privacy policy.

Changes and law

We may update these terms; the date above shows the latest version, and we'll tell you in the app about important changes. These terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
