Solving for personal commerce: Interoperability as the key to scale
Mobile money services have largely replaced cash in many developing countries, processing significant portions of some countries' GDPs through platforms like M-Pesa. However, these services currently operate as closed loops that lack interoperability. Regulators are now encouraging interoperability between platforms to increase adoption rates, which are currently hindered by the lack of interoperability. Visa argues that its open-loop network model could connect diverse mobile money platforms and payment methods, expanding access to the global financial system for mobile users, just as it has done for credit card networks.
SOTIR 2013
The mobile money industry continues to grow with 219 services available across 84 countries by the end of 2013. While mobile money remains concentrated in Sub-Saharan Africa, services have expanded to other regions in recent years. There are now over 60 million active mobile money accounts globally, with 13 services having over 1 million active users each. However, only 29.9% of registered accounts are active on average. Mobile money revenues are significant for some large providers, contributing over 5% of revenues. The development of mobile insurance, credit, and savings can further deepen financial inclusion by offering additional services beyond transfers. A total of 123 such services have launched, with mobile insurance gaining traction through new partnership models.

Agent banking is a model that allows banks to extend their services through authorized third-party agents.

Statistics show agent banking has grown transactions significantly and provides convenient services to both customers and agents. While challenges remain, agent banking appears poised to continue playing a major role in the future of banking in Nigeria by extending access in currently underserved rural and urban areas.

Mobile Money Agents to limit cash withdrawals to GH₵1,000 per transaction
- 1. DATE:30TH NOVEMBER,2023 …...FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE…… FAIR COMPENSATION TO MOBILE MONEY AGENTS Dear Valued Customers, Stakeholders, and Partners, We wish to bring to your attention an important decision from the leadership of the four Mobile Money Agents Associations in Ghana. Effective 1st December 2023, a temporary measure will be implemented, restricting cash withdrawals to a maximum of Ghc1,000.00 per transaction to customers for all Mobile Money Agents across various service providers. Our goal is to ensure fair compensation for the dedicated agents. During this period, we will continue to actively engage with service providers to address the commission review concerns raised. If, within the one-month period, there is no favorable adjustment, we will regrettably have to implement further action plans. We urge you to join us in mobilizing support for fair compensation to Mobile Money Agents. Your cooperation and solidarity are pivotal in ensuring the sustainability of Mobile Money services in Ghana. Thank you for your attention and support. APPROVED ANDSIGNEDBY: Dela Dunstan Abotsi (President, MMAAG) 0244676793
