MTC Maris and Kazang join forces to expand Namibia's mobile money access
MTC Maris has teamed up with Kazang to grow mobile money services across Namibia. The deal, announced in early 2026, will use Kazang's large agent network to reach more people. Both companies aim to make digital payments easier for all Namibians.
Kazang already runs over 5,500 agents in Namibia, giving MTC Maris a strong starting point. The partnership will push services into cities, informal settlements, and far-flung rural areas. These are places where traditional banking is often hard to access.
The two firms want to boost financial inclusion by targeting underserved communities. MTC Maris has long focused on expanding digital financial tools. Kazang, a major player in African mobile money, brings experience from across the continent.
By combining their strengths, they plan to make transactions simpler for more people. The move follows a growing trend of mobile-based financial solutions in Africa.
The agreement will see Kazang's agents helping MTC Maris extend its reach. More Namibians, especially in remote areas, should now find it easier to use digital payments. The partnership marks another step in the country's shift toward cashless transactions.
