About the company
Kwara is a B2B fintech startup in Nairobi and Berlin with a unique mission, exceptional team and a global market. Our mission is to digitize Savings and Credit Unions in emerging markets that serve the 3 billion un- and underbanked population. These financial institutions hold a staggering $2.6 trillion in assets worldwide, but have yet to benefit from digital innovation. Our intuitive, secure and SaaS-based digital banking platform offers them the chance to grow their profits, connect to the digital ecosystem and serve their members better. With a dozen happy clients in Kenya, an ambitious team and a burning desire to grow at least tenfold in 2020, we are well on our way to become a world-wide market leader in cooperative fintech. Are you with us for this ride?
