It is a challenge for businesses to integrate to multiple telecommunication companies (telcos) across Africa in order to provide their services on multiple offline/2G channels (SMS, USSD, Voice, Airtime, Mobile Money) across countries, to their customers. Africa’s Talking (AT), takes away the complexity of multiple integrations in Africa, starting in Nairobi, and ensures regulatory compliance by integrating with the different telcos and providing a unified platform that can be consumed by anyone.
