Chimoney Envisions Economic Empowerment By Bridging The Financial Gap For The Unbanked

 

Toronto, Canada, August 21, 2023 – In the age of digital payments and online transactions, millions of people around the world still find themselves excluded from the global financial system. The unbanked population, those without access to traditional banking services, face significant challenges in receiving payments, especially from international sources. Enter Chimoney, a global payouts platform with a vision to bridge this financial gap and empower the unbanked.

Founded by Uchi Uchibeke, a Nigerian immigrant with firsthand experience of the difficulties faced by the unbanked population, Chimoney is on a mission to revolutionize global payments. “With Chimoney, businesses can pay one or one million people anywhere in the world with the click of a button using just an email or phone number,” says Uchibeke, who was inspired to create Chimoney after facing challenges in paying winners from various countries during an AfricaHacks community event.

Chimoney’s platform enables individuals without bank accounts to receive payments through alternative methods like mobile money, airtime, and crypto. This not only fosters financial inclusion but also provides new opportunities for economic empowerment, especially for remote workers and individuals in developing countries.

As the world continues to embrace remote work and online communities, the need for efficient global payouts becomes increasingly evident. Chimoney’s platform addresses this need by allowing businesses to send bulk payouts to emails, phone numbers, or even Twitter handles. Recipients can then cash out to their preferred method, including bank accounts, gift cards, cryptocurrency, mobile money, or airtime.

Chimoney’s innovative approach has already garnered attention from major partners and investors. The company recently secured a spot in the prestigious Techstars Toronto Accelerator program, which is known for backing high-potential startups with a global vision. Uchibeke’s inspiring journey from Nigeria to becoming a fintech CEO in Canada is a testament to the impact that Chimoney aims to achieve.

The upcoming integration of the Interledger Protocol (ILP) into Chimoney’s platform will further enhance its potential for financial inclusion. By enabling payments received to Interledger Payment pointers in Chimoney wallets to be cashed out to various supported options, the company contributes to the growth of the Interledger network and the broader financial ecosystem.

As Chimoney continues to expand its reach and empower the unbanked population, the company remains committed to its vision of economic empowerment and financial inclusion. By breaking down barriers and providing access to global payments, Chimoney is helping to create a more inclusive and equitable world.
