Vodacom Tanzania has announced the opening of its M-Pesa API in a move set to entice local and international developers into creating new use cases for the mobile payments service.
Vodacom M-Pesa mobile financial system has undergone lots of transformation over the years including a historic migration and upgrade to a second-generation platform which is faster, more secure and more importantly, hosted locally in Tanzania for easier maintenance.
The opening up of M-PESA API's complements other recent initiatives by the company like Lipa Kwa Simu an interoperable service, international Money transfers (IMT) and the M-Pesa App all aimed at creating a cashless society and driving a digital economy.
