Chief of Staff Nairobi, Kenya Welcome to Credable! We build embedded finance solutions that provide access to finance to people and places that previously were left in the dark. Picture not being able to store your earnings securely, transmit or receive money over great distances, acquire credit, or participate in the digital economy.
This isn't a trivial inconvenience, it affects the livelihoods, education, health, and opportunity of those considered "unbanked". On the flip side There are businesses (e.g.
mobile network operators, e-commerce platforms, and service providers) who have captive customers in their channels and rich data but lack the capabilities to offer those customers reliable access to financial services.
Financial service providers (banks & insurance companies) that possess the capital and licenses, but cannot reach the customers with no physical access to them; therefore unable to expand their digital portfolio and solve the issue of financial independence across the continent... That's where we come in.
