  • Talk360 — Talk360 is an easy-to-use calling app that helps people make affordable international calls to any mobile and landline number.

To bridge this distance, Talk360 will launch the world's first single checkout platform for Africa. This platform will combine all locally available payment methods and currencies across Africa, together with over 1.25 million cash points of sales, and will eventually be available to other companies as well.
