On November 26, 2019, MyDawa, a Kenyan online store, made headlines with a groundbreaking partnership.
MyDawa has teamed up with digital lender Umba to revolutionize the way patients access medicine, offering credit options to those in need.
The new partnership relies on patients' credit scores to determine access to loans of up to Ksh1600.
Earlier this year, MyDawa secured $3 million in Series D funding to fuel countrywide expansion and provide affordable, safe healthcare products.
MyDawa's online store offers a wide range of medical products and equipment, wellness products, and beauty products.
