The company describes the project as part of an effort to build what it and its partners characterize as Africa’s first interoperable Financial Operating System(FOS).Felix Achibiri, Founder of Tulupay, emphasized the mission behind the innovation:“Africa still struggles with fragmented payment rails, high remittance costs, and the absence ofa single infrastructure that connects banks, mobile money, and blockchain networks. As cross-border transfers remain slow and expensive, and as more African central banks move toward CBDCs, the need for a unifying, interoperable operating system has never been more Urgent.”He added that Tulupay has been built to deliver that missing technological infrastructure bridge, reimagining how Africa connects with both the traditional and digital financial world, creating a borderless financial system where money, identity, and assets move seamlessly, and Africa leads in the global digital economy. “We are not just building another fintech app; we’re laying the infrastructure for Africa’s $3.4T AfCFTA trade potential.”
