MobileMoney LTD has recently expanded its focus beyond traditional mobile money services. In January 2025, the company partnered with the Institute of Statistical, Social and Economic Research (ISSER) at the University of Ghana through the Retail Financial Distribution Research Initiative (ReFinD) to conduct research on mobile money agent networks aimed at expanding financial inclusion among underserved communities. The company also launched blockchain integration frameworks to enhance transaction traceability and combat mobile money fraud.
