eGroupX debuts South Africa MVNO

Emerging fintech and telecom company, eGroupX, has made its debut in South Africa, launching a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) service alongside a diverse range of offerings 

With an established presence in Kenya, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, and Angola, the company’s expansion into South Africa aims to enhance the accessibility and affordability of financial and telecommunication services for underserved populations.

eGroupX integrates financial and connectivity solutions to build an ecosystem catering to low-income households, SMEs, and informal merchants. Its services span banking, remittances, insurance, telecommunications, internet services, cryptocurrency, and forex trading, all designed to meet the unique demands of Africa’s financial landscape.

The MVNO service, branded as eMobile, operates through partnerships with established telecom providers to deliver cost-efficient mobile banking and onboarding solutions. Saud Ally, CEO of eGroupX, highlights the service’s tailored approach for South African communities.

“eMobile has adopted a localised approach, which includes exclusive bundles for students, small businesses, and underserved areas, ensuring customers experience reliable coverage and high-quality service. The focus is on simplicity, with a seamless onboarding process and free SIM cards,” explained Ally.

eMobile leverages the infrastructure of a major telecom provider in South Africa, whose identity will be disclosed at an upcoming launch event. The service is already operational, promising affordable and accessible connectivity across the region.

In addition to telecommunications, eGroupX offers a cryptocurrency platform called DoshFX, providing secure options for buying, storing, and trading digital assets. The platform includes advanced tools like real-time market data and customizable trading options, catering to novice and experienced crypto users alike.

“For active crypto traders, the trading platform offers advanced tools, including real-time market data, charting tools, and customizable trading options, catering to both beginners and experts. Users can track their investments in real-time through the portfolio management feature, providing a clear view of asset performance and value fluctuations,” remarked Ally.

Acknowledging that many South Africans are underutilizing traditional banking services, eGroupX aims to bridge the gap by promoting financial inclusion. Their mission is to integrate financial services into everyday life, empowering users to engage actively and effectively.

“Financial inclusion is not just about giving people access to financial services; it’s about integrating these services into their everyday lives in a way that adds real value. Our approach leverages the strengths of each business unit to deliver services that are greater together than they are apart. Our mission is to reshape financial services in South Africa and empower millions of people to take control of their financial futures,” Ally concluded.
