The partnership represents a major step toward increasing financial inclusion and access in Africa. The CEO of TBD, Mike Brock, emphasized the potential benefits of the partnership and the objective of bringing cutting-edge financial solutions to 40 nations on the continent.
Block Inc. established the TBD two years ago to address the lack of financial access for individuals, businesses, and payment platforms. TBD, founded by Jack Dorsey, is committed to advancing financial empowerment through innovative technology by utilizing the knowledge and experience of its parent company.
Payment companies are looking to grow in Africa to reach a younger demographic and offer a vital service where banking infrastructure may be unavailable. Traditional money transfer methods are slower due to the lengthy customer identity procedures.&nbsp;
One of the top fintech companies in Africa, Chipper Cash, makes it easy for 5 million users to transfer money between 21 different African countries. Moreover, its integration marks the incorporation of one of the continent’s largest virtual card issuers, with over 1.2 million cards distributed.
After a partnership with the tbDEX protocol, Chipper Cash can facilitate faster and more affordable cross-border payments as well as decentralized identity use cases for individuals and businesses across the continent.
A President and Co-Founder of Chipper Cash, Maijid Moujaled, emphasizes the significance of remittances for African families. The partnership aims to reduce high costs, enabling a more efficient, transparent, and compliant remittance process.
TBD acts as a bridge between traditional finance and digital assets, fostering ecosystem engagement. Its goal is to empower various entities, including developers, fintechs, startups, banks, and institutions, to drive financial innovation in Africa and globally.
