Leaf Wallet Rebrands to BOSS Money as Part of Expansion Across Africa

IDT Corporation, a global provider of fintech, cloud communications, and traditional communications services, announced today that it is rebranding its Africa-based Leaf Wallet app to IDT’s flagship financial services brand, BOSS Money.

The rebranding is part of a broader initiative to leverage the key technologies of Leaf Wallet to gradually expand across Africa allowing U.S. consumers to send money transfers directly to family and friends in the Continent.

The newly branded BOSS Money wallet will continue to use the Leaf Wallet’s innovative, blockchain-based technology on the Stellar Network so that customers across Africa can safely store, send, receive, and exchange currencies on their phones domestically and across borders. The wallet will continue to allow customers to access funds and transact on feature phones utilizing a USSD interface accessed via a short code and via the app.
