“We are excited about the opportunities this funding has unlocked for merchants and consumers. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the investors and supporters for their unwavering trust in our vision. These funds have enabled us to further invest in technology and infrastructure to make our financing solutions even more accessible and convenient for our customers ” said Eric Muli, Group CEO at Lipa Later.
He further revealed that looking Forward, there is a plan to raise an additional KES 2 Billion in both Equity and Debt to spur our growth further as we work towards unlocking a $500bn Financial Inclusion Opportunity in Urban Africa. This capital infusion will support our continued growth and expansion plans, enabling us to reach more customers and businesses nationwide.
The Kenyan market holds immense potential for financial innovation, and we are committed to playing a significant role in shaping the future of financing in Kenya. With the support of our stakeholders and investors, we are confident that we can achieve our goal of making financing more accessible and inclusive for all.
