Stakeholders to Chart Africa’s Cashless Future at MobileMoneyExpo

MobileMoneyExpo, Africa’s leading mobile financial services event, now entering its fifth Year, will hold in the month of May in Lagos – Nigeria and will address the key issues faced by the continent’s growing e-commerce, financial services, government and remittances ecosystem : Going cashless.

The event delivers two full days of top executives networking, cutting edge content from dynamic presentations and engaging discussions designed to address developments, challenges, opportunities and success stories within the digital financial services ecosystem around Africa.

According to Emmanuel Okoegwale, Principal Associate at MobileMoneyAfrica, ‘the future of cash in Africa will not be about cash or physical representation of value. The future of cash will be the compelling digital form that is shaping how Africans transact in some regions already, breaking down barriers across income groups leveraging on applications available via ubiquitous devices such as mobile phones and plastics, web etc.’

Delegates and participants will develop deeper understanding of the evolving digital financial services and gain insights that will guide regulatory, policy making, businesses and investment decisions in the emerging digital financial services space across Africa.

The lead sponsors for this Year’s event are Ingenico, a global leader in seamless payment and provider of secure solutions to empower commerce across all channels and Clickatell, the world's leading bulk SMS and USSD provider covering more than 960 networks across more than 220 countries and territories.
