Lasting Value for Banks Across Africa

Rewa helps banks and fintechs boost usage and revenue with a customised loyalty programme. Microfinance banks and fintechs run it in their Standalone App. Commercial banks add it to the app they already have through the UNIFOS Super SDK. Both run on the same engine, the same rules and the same Partner portal.
