In their words
Real builds, for real African businesses
We design for how the continent actually works - money that moves over mobile wallets, and places without a street address. Here's what that's meant for the people we've built with.
We needed loans to reach people who bank on their phones, not in branches. Softserve built Adima to disburse and collect straight over M-Pesa and EcoCash - a borrower has cash in minutes, wherever they are. It works the way Lesotho actually moves money.
Most parents here can't hand a driver a street address - so Softserve let families drop a WhatsApp pin instead, and watch the trip approach in real time. They solved a very African problem with technology that feels obvious the moment you see it.
Our customers wanted to shop online but pay the way they trust. Softserve gave Mamo Beauty a storefront that takes M-Pesa, EcoCash and card and confirms every order over WhatsApp. Online browsing finally turned into real orders.
