Your financial well-being starts and may well end with a bank account. There are numerous reasons why people open bank accounts, and a lot more why they don’t. The inconvenience of rushing in and out of banking halls, joining long queues and paying high bank charges are just a few of the reasons why traditional banking is failing many consumers, especially in Africa. Fortunately, Wala is here.
Digital Banking Made Easy
Wala has provided the first financial platform designed for consumers. It has described its innovative technological banking solution as the first bank for Africans. And indeed if you consider the many ways Wala improves the lives of Africans, you would appreciate the usefulness of the product in its quest to better lives on the continent. While most of us pay fee after fee for banking and mobile wallets, Wala has finally created a digital system that is completely FREE for us to use. And with the growing adoption and use of smartphones and other mobile computing devices in Africa, the time and product is just right.

Who is Behind
One of the reasons why many Africans have high inertia or resistance towards digital products that involve movement of funds is ‘trust’ or lack of it. Often, we do not know the people behind these digital products or online fronts, and hence we are apprehensive towards their adoption and use. Team Wala is in Cape Town, South Africa and ready to meet you. Cape Town is just the beginning for Wala. The team intends to set up offices in every country they expand to, so they can serve customers better. Here’s what Tricia Martinez, CEO of Wala, has to say about the digital banking product.
