Shares
Mastercard has partnered with Billetera, a digital payments technology company in Kenya, to provide unbanked and financially excluded residents in the DRC access to formal financial and digital services. This will be made possible through a diverse range of digital payment solutions.
The partnership aims to support the vision of the DRC Government, which under the leadership of President Felix Tshisekedi has an ambitious digitization program aligned with the country’s National Digital Plan (NDP). With only 22.5 million of DRC’s total population of 90 million being financially included within the nation’s financial system, access to banking and mobile money has become an important agenda for the government.
