The OLB Group, Inc.

2,166,666 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the resale of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of The OLB Group, Inc. (the “Company”), consisting of up to 2,166,666 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants (the “Warrants”) originally issued by us on January 26, 2026 in a private placement pursuant to a share purchase agreement dated on such date (the “Offering”) at an exercise price of $0.78 per share.

This registration does not mean that the selling stockholders named herein will actually offer or sell any of these shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of any of the shares of common stock being registered hereby sold by the selling stockholders. However, we may receive proceeds from the exercise of the Warrants held by the selling stockholders exercised other than pursuant to any applicable cashless exercise provisions of such Warrants.

Following effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the sale and distribution of securities offered hereby may be effected from time to time in one or more transaction that may take place on Nasdaq (or such other market or quotation system on which our common stock is then listed or quoted), including ordinary brokers’ transactions, privately negotiated transactions or through sales to one or more dealers for resale of such securities as principals, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Usual and customary or specifically negotiated brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by selling stockholders. The selling stockholders and intermediaries through whom such securities are sold may be deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to the securities offered hereby, and any profits realized or commissions received may be deemed underwriting compensation.

This prospectus describes the general manner in which shares of common stock may be offered and sold by any selling stockholders. When the selling stockholders sell shares of common stock under this prospectus, we may, if necessary and required by law, provide a prospectus supplement that will contain specific information about the terms of that offering. Any prospectus supplement may also add to, update, modify or replace information contained in this prospectus. We urge you to carefully read this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement and any documents we incorporate by reference into this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement before you make your investment decision.

Our common stock is currently listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “OLB”. On August 31, 2026 the last reported sale price of our common stock was $0.296 per share.

We are an “emerging growth company” as that term is defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and, as such, have elected to take advantage of certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus and future filings.

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making any investment decision, you should carefully review and consider all the information in this prospectus including the risks and uncertainties described under “Risk Factors” beginning on page 7 and those risk factors in the documents incorporated by reference for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our securities.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
