Job Description
Our mission
We're making Africa the first cashless continent.
In 2017 over half the population in Sub-Saharan Africa had no bank account.
That's for good reason—the fees are too high the closest branch can be miles away and nobody takes cards.
Without access to financial institutions people are forced to keep their savings under the mattress.
Small business owners rely on lenders who charge extortionate rates.
Parents spend hours waiting in line to pay school fees in cash.
We're solving this by building financial services that just work: no account fees instantly available and accepted everywhere.
In places where electricity water and roads don't always work you can still send money with Wave.
In 2017 we launched a mobile app in Senegal for cash deposit withdrawal and peer-to-peer and business payments.
Now we have millions of users across 9 countries and are growing fast.
Our goal is to make Africa the first cashless continent and that's where you come in...
