Services

One platform. Six ways to earn from it.

Every service runs on the same scoring, delivery, and reconciliation core — deploy one, add the next without a new integration.

Airtime & Data Advance

Subscribers obtain airtime, data, or voice minutes the moment their balance hits zero — repaid automatically on the next top-up.

Credit Scoring & Decisioning

Real-time credit profiles built from mobile usage, behavioural, and transaction data — decisions in under a second.

Mobile Micro-Lending

Real cash micro-loans disbursed straight to mobile wallets or bank accounts — instant approval, no paperwork, no branch visit.

Call Signature Service

Islamic Finance

The first full Shariah-compliant digital product suite built for Ethiopia

Murabaha financing, Wadia wallets, Kafala guarantees, Zakat & Sadaqah, and a certified Halal marketplace — governed by an independent Shariah advisory board, with quarterly audits and published fatwas. In 2025 the National Bank of Ethiopia lifted the credit cap for Shariah-compliant lenders; the market is open.

Financial ACCESS for All.

Most people excluded from credit are not un-creditworthy — they are un-scored. We use the data people already generate to open doors that paperwork keeps closed.

How it works

Four steps from integration to repayment

Connect

The platform integrates with the operator's or lender's core systems — charging, wallet, and CRM.

Score

Every request is scored in real time from usage, recharge, and transaction behaviour.

Deliver

Advances, loans, and premium services reach the customer over SMS, USSD, IVR, or wallet.

Collect

Recovery runs automatically on top-up or schedule, with full reconciliation back to the partner.

Who we serve

Built for every partner type

Mobile operators

New revenue from advances, premium VAS, and real-time charging — with credit risk carried by the service, not the network.

Banks & MFIs

Score and serve customers who have no bureau file — micro-loans, BNPL, and Shariah-compliant products under your licence.

Wallet operators

Embedded credit and advance products that raise wallet activity and keep balances moving.
