On Tuesday, Cellulant announced the launch of Tingg, a revolutionary consumer super app that combines payment, commerce, and financial services in one platform.
Available in 8 countries, including Kenya, Tingg has expanded its third-party service offerings to include food delivery and gas delivery, in addition to utility payments and airtime top-ups.
Consumers can access Tingg by dialling 369# or downloading the app, which also allows them to create and manage investment groups and fundraisers.
According to Ken Njoroge, co-CEO of Cellulant, the app aims to address the challenges faced by sub-Saharan Africans, including high transaction costs, fragmented markets, and inconvenient payment options.
Cellulant's digital payment infrastructure connects consumers and businesses to over 120 banks and 40 mobile network operators, making it a key player in Africa's digital transformation.
Now available in Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Uganda, Tanzania, Mozambique, Zambia, and Botswana, Tingg is Cellulant's new unifying brand identity that promises a robust single payments platform for Africa's marketplace.
