Fintech startup, Wapi Pay, has raised seed capital via Future Hub, becoming the first Fintech investment in Africa to do so.
According to Wapi Pay co-founder, Eddie Ndichu, they will use the funding to expand further into the African continent.
In August last year, Transsion Holdings, the company that makes popular smartphone brands like Techno, Infinix & iTel, and Kenya’s Wapi Capital partnered to find and fund Africa’s Tech Startups. The fund was seeking to select early-stage African Fintechs for equity-based investments of up to $100,000.
