JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA/ACCESSWIRE/July 6, 2022/ ENNOVA, the fastest growing blockchain services company in South Africa, announces that it is expanding the AUC Project ecosystem.
African countries actively used mobile money as a measure to improve financial inclusion, and as mobile money lowered the threshold for financial use and increased access, financial inclusion in Africa doubled from 23% in 2011 to 43% in 2017, according to the results According to the FinAccess 2021 survey, conducted to measure the country’s financial utilization and inclusivity, Kenya’s utilization of financial services by official financial institutions such as banks increased rapidly from 26.7% in 2006 to 83.7%.
Mobile money is nothing new. Even before the pandemic, African countries were at the forefront of the industry. Per McKinsey: “Just over half of the 282 mobile money services operating worldwide are in sub-Saharan Africa.” Today, it’s not uncommon for more citizens to have access to mobile money than to a traditional bank account.
What’s even more impressive is that there’s still plenty of room for growth. According to the Wall Street Journal, only 45% of Africa’s population has an active cell phone. To put this in perspective, in Europe this number is well over 80%. How these numbers are affected by the pandemic is unclear.
In this situation, mobile money can effectively impact the improvement of financial inclusion beyond supply and demand boundaries. Mobile money has the advantage that it can easily offer financial services to mobile phone users without installing any special financial infrastructure. In addition, as with the credit scoring system, creditworthiness is measured based on mobile phone usage history, and services such as microloans can be offered to people with irregular income, low income or low credit without work. In particular, facilitating small transactions compared to banks can contribute to the financial inclusion of socially disadvantaged groups.
Tier is a simple, easy and fast payment and remittance app developed by Ennova, a financial platform and service provider based in South Africa.
The core platform of the AUC project, powered by Ennvoa, Tier, a mobile wallet to register credit cards from different banks in the wallet to provide a service that allows you to conveniently buy goods in convenience stores. In addition, prepaid IC cards issued by Ennova can be registered, and when customers use them, they can purchase goods at a very low cost or receive various rewards through services provided by Ennova.
Michael Kwon, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Ennova said, “We are a fintech and blockchain solutions company that has been continuously researching and developing for the last three years to offer more convenient online/offline payment services to African users.” He added : “In the fast-growing easy payment market after the Covid-19 crisis, the Tier app will provide users with a more convenient digital payment environment and enable the payment of digital assets by offering high discount rates, low fees and strong security. In addition, he said, “At present, the entry of large companies like PayPal into the digital asset payment market will draw more attention to the digital assets themselves and increase demand, and if Tier App’s unique strengths are well utilized, it will definitely become possible.” to undermine demand in African markets.” Concluding: “We are also introducing digital assets to Africa through the Leo12 exchange and providing a secure trading environment. She will support blockchain startups on the African continent through LEO12’s Jump Deck program. With this ecosystem, we are spreading the benefits of digital finance across Africa and striving for sustainable development that grows together.”
