Shiga Digital , a rapidly growing blockchain-based fintech company, is transforming how African businesses access modern financial services. The company announced the launch of its new Android and iOS apps, expanding access to its end-to-end digital finance platform for businesses and individuals across the continent.
With this milestone, Shiga Digital makes it easier than ever for businesses and individuals to send and receive stablecoin payments, manage cross-border transactions, and access secure digital asset investments all from the convenience of a mobile device.
The launch follows a recent strategic partnership and investment from Tether, the global leader in digital assets and issuer of the world's most widely used stablecoin. This collaboration marks a major step in scaling blockchain adoption across Africa and signals growing international confidence in the continent's fintech landscape.
"Africa is on the cusp of a financial transformation, and at Tether, we believe in being more than just observers we are active enablers. Our strategic alliance with Shiga Digital is rooted in a shared belief that access to stable, secure, and scalable financial tools should not be a privilege, but a right. This partnership represents a long-term commitment to equipping African businesses with the technology and infrastructure needed to thrive in an increasingly digital global economy. Together, we are unlocking new pathways for growth and innovation and helping to shape a more inclusive financial future for the continent."
