People In Botswana With Orange Money Can Now Send Money To EcoCash Users In Zimbabwe

EcoCash users can now receive money from users of the Orange Money Mobile Money platform Botswana. In the meantime, EcoCash users will not be able to send funds the other way. This also applies to all their other remittance platforms.

In our communications with an EcoCash representative, he made it abundantly clear that they prioritize partnerships with countries that have high volumes of Zimbabwean. It appears most of the other countries that use Orange Money have a low number of Zimbabweans so they may not be moving to those territories anytime soon.

Orange Money is used in 15 other countries across the continent which include, Ivory Coast, Tunisia, Sierra Leone and DRC among others.

    This just made lives of Zimbabweans living in Zambia easy. Thumps up to the department running with remittances at Econet.

    Wow, that is very nice to hear, I wonder when will Bitcoin become a currency in Zimbabwe because people who invested in Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are now ready to use the currency in online shopping and also to develop renewable energy projects in the country.

      Unless the government can tax it, it will not be allowed as a domestic transactional currency unfortunately.
