Letshego\u2019s Group Chief Executive Andrew Okai said that currently digitisation is no longer a revolution but part of everyday life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHaving recently celebrated Africa Day, and as we navigate our way through a global pandemic, there is no better time than now for Letshego to be inspiring confidence in our unique strengths as a continent, encouraging collaboration to overcome our challenges,\u201d Mr Okai said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDigital is no longer a revolution; digital is life,\u201d he said. The Botswana based banking group recently launched its \u2018LetsGo digital\u2019 campaign through its digital financial technology platform. This, according to the company, is an enabler to deepen financial inclusion across Africa.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Group, Letshego has chosen two budding markets, Nigeria and Botswana, as the first two countries in which the \u2018LetsGodigital\u2019 will be rolled out.<\/p>\n<p>Through the LetsGo App, customers have access to simple financial beyond banking services on the go, to enhance their lifestyles.<\/p>\n<p>He said \u201cLetsGO solutions\u201d enable customers to achieve their aspirations, empowering a progressive generation of cultural change in this new normal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith simple digital financial and beyond banking solutions that are tailored to support life goals and help improve the lives of our customers, bringing tangible spin-off benefits for our local communities,\u201d Mr Okai said.<\/p>\n<p>Initially the LetsGO platform \u2013 accessible via mobile phone and web will unlock digital access to account information, loans and top-ups for existing and new deduction at source customers in Botswana and Nigeria. He said the Group\u2019s remaining 9 markets including Tanzania will enjoy the same digital platform benefits by the end of this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
