Our Partnership Highlights
$500B in transactions for 2025 across 69.5M MoMo users
The team optimised and maintains MTN’s MoMo digital wallet, supporting secure money transfers, payments, and storage across 14 countries. The platform processed $500 billion in transaction value in 2025.
Driving consistency and speed through a unified design system
We partnered with MTN to design and evolve their design system, consolidating multiple front-end libraries into a single, scalable source of truth – reducing duplicated development effort and enabling faster delivery.
Recovering lost revenue through intelligent fraud detection
We designed and built a solution that identifies fraudulent transaction patterns, enabling MTN to recover millions in commission fees.
Enhancing MTN's digital platform resilience
A dedicated engineering quality initiative reduced technical debt, increased test automation and code coverage, and significantly de-risking key platforms, enabling more scalable, reliable delivery.
Strengthening fraud prevention across MoMo
The solution enhanced fraud and risk management across multiple operating companies, addressing social engineering threats, such as fraudsters posing as agents to obtain one-time passwords (OTPs), and improving transaction security through proactive detection and prevention.
Enabling scalable, omnichannel customer communication
We built a reusable notification engine that delivers templatised messaging across SMS, app, and email – reducing manual effort, optimising costs, and enabling MTN to engage and educate customers at scale.
Streamlining payments through seamless Apple Pay integration
Delivered MTN’s first Apple Pay integration, reducing friction across omni-channels and enabling faster, more secure transactions across multiple applications.
