Velmie is expanding its presence in Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa by launching a white-label digital wallet platform.
Digital transformation could be a game-changer for the African continent, and Fintech is currently one of the main drivers of this technology revolution. The tremendous opportunity for digitally-driven financial services companies lies in the high proportion of unbanked citizens, the immense size and favorable demographics of the African population, and the relatively limited state of technology.
Digital banking and financial products allow hundreds of millions of unbanked consumers to benefit from transacting online within their local context. Neobanking systems are designed to give financial companies access to automation, digitalization, and robust security, giving them ample opportunities to grow and innovate.
“There is a unique opportunity for Africa to become a world leader in FinTech, getting the most out of emerging technologies while greatly contributing to financial inclusion and innovation.” - Paul Shumsky, CMO
Addressing the industry demands, Velmie saw the opportunity to establish itself as a strategic technology partner to companies that want to take advantage of the disruption opportunities presented by open banking in Africa. We saw it as a market offering great potential, given the significant proportion of the population who don’t have access to affordable and secure payment services.

Regional Expertise

It has also successfully developed payment solutions for its clients: a nationwide payment system in North Africa, clearance and custody solutions for banks, and others.
These projects have given us extensive experience in working with African digital financial service providers. As such, it has gained valuable regional-specific knowledge of the services most in demand and the integration capabilities required for white-label mobile wallet platforms that cater to the African market.
