The Opportunity

Problem

UAE-based blockchain projects struggle to scale access to their infrastructure among millions of African users without partnerships with dominant local platforms like M-Pesa.

Solution

ChainPesaHub lets foundations launch targeted referral campaigns linked to M-Pesa incentives, tracking user signups and wallet creations. It provides white-label landing pages with M-Pesa payment proofs for trust. This drives organic growth without telco deals by leveraging affiliate networks in Africa.
