{{Tigo has partnered with regional banking giant, Kenya Commercial Bank (KCB) in Rwanda to enable customers of both institutions to send money seamlessly between any Tigo Cash wallet and any KCB bank account.}}
Speaking on financial inclusion at the 50th anniversary of the National Bank of Rwanda (BNR), Tongai Maramba, General Manager of Tigo Rwanda said:
“The new service gives Tigo Cash users and KCB customers access to their money anytime, anywhere through our strong network of agents across the country and furthers financial inclusion.
With this development Tigo Cash expands the linkages in the financial system with Tigo Cash customers already able to send money directly from their wallet to Tigo Pesa in Tanzania.”
Tigo has over six thousand agents across the country offering cash-in and cash-out services near where most people live or work.
Maramba continued: “This is just the beginning of a bigger program by Tigo to give customers what they’ve always wanted – a joined up ecosystem of financial services where all players in the financial sector are interconnected.”
To use the service, Tigo Cash customers simply dial *200*11# from their mobile phone.
