The Vice President challenged the stakeholders in the financial industry to mobilize efforts to achieve interoperability in order to achieve total financial inclusion.
The Mazzuma app enables users to receive and send mobile money to all networks, thereby achieving interoperability at the telecommunications level.
It can be accessed on the Facebook platform, allowing Facebook users to buy airtime, pay bills and send mobile money directly on Facebook Messenger through Mazzuma’s platform.
Founders Kofi Genfi and Nii Osae Osae Dade, who were commended by Dr. Bawumia for their efforts, urged the general public to download and use the payment system.
