Company
Touch and Pay Technologies Limited
Digitizing and processing microtransactions in Africa
We built a digital platform that processes cash-based microtransactions across Africa's informal sector. Our product makes it simple for people who pay for everyday things like bus rides to use digital payments through mobile and agent networks. Right now, we help over 300,000 users complete these small payments efficiently and reliably.
We live and work in Lagos, Nigeria, and the company is based here. After YC, we will continue to be based in Lagos to stay close to our users and market.
Lagos is where the informal economy we serve is concentrated. Our team and users are here, so it's the natural place to build and scale our product.
