Spark Wallet: Empowering Financial Access Across Africa
Problem statement
Millions of people, especially in underserved areas, lack access to vital financial services due to limited traditional banking options. This limits their full economic participation and growth. Digital wallets offer a practical solution, providing low-cost, mobile-based financial access and simplified identity verification. This enables unbanked users to access essential services like sending money and paying bills. Although digital literacy and connectivity can be challenges, this digital wallet is designed to be accessible and efficient even with poor signal, bridging the inclusion gap and empowering users to securely and sustainably manage and grow their finances.
