Last Friday, finance transfer payment system firm Chipper Cash celebrated its fourth anniversary. The celebrations were held at the Mestil Hotel in Kampala hosted by comedian Anne Kansiime and media personality Timothy CODE and some of its users in attendance were served an exquisite breakfast.
Dan Tumuramye the Country Director for Chipper Cash Uganda expressed his merriment at the event saying, “Chipper Cash is celebrating four years of enabling more and more people to move money freely across borders.”
He also shared new information on some of the most exciting features recently launched. He mentioned users being able to send money to non-Chipper users at no cost. He additionally unveiled the forthcoming exciting features on the Chipper money moving platform.
Maijid Moujaled, who is of Ghanaian descent, and Ham Serunjogi, a Ugandan, created the business in 2018 to make it easier and less expensive for African consumers to transfer money in their continent and across borders.
“At the core of many business origin stories is people taking the initiative to build products and services that they’d like to use for themselves, if for no other reason. Chipper Cash is no different. A little less than four years ago, Maijid and I set off on a journey to make sending money across and within Africa easy, accessible, and maybe even fun,” Ham Serunjogi, Chipper Cash Chief executive officer said.
Chipper recently launched in South Africa increasing its geographic reach. It has also broadened its global footprint by opening in the UK and US. In addition, Virtual Cards are now live in Nigeria and the Global Stocks product is now available in Uganda along with the functionality of being able to send funds to Non-Chipper users.
