When we opened our Westlands office last year, it was four people and a borrowed meeting room. Today the Nairobi hub runs support, compliance and engineering for every East African corridor.
Why Nairobi
Kenya is where mobile money became normal for business. Building here keeps us close to how our customers actually pay and get paid.
What the team works on
