Ahh, well, I'm not sure of any new players, as of a few years ago most of the telecoms have their own form of mobile money transfer. It mostly started in Kenya with m-Pesa years ago, where people could send money thru USSD codes. Now these companies have apps to do it, like Airtel, Safaricom/Vodacom, MTN, Togo, etc. Some companies in West Africa appear to be going hard for the market in consolidating across telecoms, like Paystack and Flutterwave, one of whom I think got investment from Stripe and the other from Visa I believe.
