. We're making Africa the first cashless continent. In 2017, over half the population in Sub‑Saharan Africa had no bank account. Those folks endure high fees, distant branches, and no card acceptance. Wave builds financial services that just work: no account fees, instant availability, and acceptance everywhere. We launched a mobile app in Senegal for cash deposit, withdrawal, and peer‑to‑peer and business payments and now have millions of users across nine countries.
