Balsham's leadership and strategic vision have been instrumental in Onafriq's expansion to over 40 African countries and its mission to bring digital payment solutions to small businesses across the continent.
The decision to rebrand was driven by the need to expand beyond mobile money services. As Balsham explains, the company now connects to banks and cash pick-up networks, offering a more comprehensive range of services. The name ‘Onafriq’ reflects this broader scope and ambition.
