The team at Singo Africa was looking for a solution that was world class, scalable and affordable to Africa business, in particular MFIs e.g. SACCOS. They strive to provide a solution that bridges the gap of what a corporate bank customer vs a normal poor community user residing at the far end of our country gets. They wanted their company to contribute to the community where they originate and importantly, actually live.
