Introduction to the Wakandi solution
Wakandi is a payment network that works for financial services companies, government regulators, and others taking on the challenges of interoperability and financial inclusion.
What is the Wakandi solution?
Wakandi offers a DLT-based infrastructure that enables faster, cheaper, and more transparent ways to transfer value and share data. It connects banks, Mobile Money Operators (MNOs) and financial institutions to provide a foundation to develop innovative products and services.
What makes us unique?
What drives Wakandi is the power of technology and innovation and our constant urge to create a positive impact on 370 million (2019) unbanked Africans by attracting them to choose the formal economy.
Why Africa?
African countries have experienced constant economic growth in recent years, creating an entirely new development path for better business potential. Another aspect of the African economy being highly cash-driven, with 95% of retail transactions in cash (2019), offers a perfect market for Wakandi to flourish.
The story of Wakandi
Wakandi was founded in 2018 with an aim to improve the way money and money transfers are handled in Africa. We were inspired by how technology and innovation can create a positive impact on millions of people.
