- Wave Mobile Money — Wave Mobile Money provides an app-based financial solution to save, transfer, and borrow money. Wave Mobile Money is on a mission to make Africa the first cashless continent.

It is building life-changing financial infrastructure. When mobile money succeeded in Kenya, it lifted about a million people out of poverty.
