About the job
Our Mission
At wavemm1, our vision is to transform Africa into the world's leading cashless continent. Despite significant challenges, including high banking fees and limited access to financial institutions, we are committed to providing innovative financial solutions that empower individuals and businesses alike.
Since our inception in 2017, we have recognized that over half of the population in Sub-Saharan Africa remains unbanked due to various barriers. Our solutions are designed to break down these barriers, allowing users to send, receive, and manage their money effortlessly.
We are proud to have launched our mobile app in Senegal for cash deposits, withdrawals, and peer-to-peer payments, which now serves millions of users across nine countries and is rapidly expanding.
Join us in our mission to make Africa the first cashless continent!
