Cellulant Ghana Recognised as the Most Innovative Payment Service Provider in 2022

Cellulant , Africa’s payments company, has received three awards at the just concluded National Communications Awards in recognition of its contribution to driving innovation and Ghana’s digitization agenda. The company was also recognised for its leadership in driving online and offline payments with its digital payment platform, Tingg

The Awards, which celebrate and reward excellent communication and digitalisation companies, teams and professionals, are Ghana’s biggest gathering of the Communications, Digitalisation and Media Community. The Awards are a high-impact development communications programme developed and produced by RAD Communications Limited to champion communications, digitalization, and organizational and national development.

Speaking on the recognition, Eric Kortey stated, “As more money flows online and more people use digital finance apps and services, cashless transactions have grown significantly in Ghana during the past two years. Ghana’s mobile money market was worth $92 billion in 2021, and estimates indicate that it could grow to $494 billion by 2027. Cellulant has a significant market opportunity to provide these digital solutions to businesses and their customers. 2022 has been a fantastic year for us in Ghana as we have scaled the business and built an ecosystem that allows businesses to pay and be paid. This award is an ode to the amazing efforts Cellulant’s team makes to integrate digital payments into the fabric of everyday life in Ghana.”
