MTN Nigeria subsidiary, YDFS launches MoMo Agent network

Following the successful award of a Super-Agent License, Y’ello Digital Financial Services, YDFS, a subsidiary of MTN Nigeria has opened its doors, announcing the launch of its super-agent network service named ‘MoMo Agent’, recently in Abuja. The initiative is a fintech strategy designed to accelerate financial inclusion.

The extensive network of MoMo Agents will immediately begin providing safe and accessible money transfer services to underbanked and unbanked people across Nigeria. With this, the company joins ongoing efforts to accelerate the Central Bank of Nigeria’s drive for financial inclusion.

Speaking at the launch, the Chief Executive Officer of MTN Nigeria, Ferdi Moolman said: “I am excited by the possibilities. We are fortunate to be part of the telecoms industry which underpins the digital economy and is critical to inclusive development and the future economic growth of this great nation. The launch of the YDFS MoMo Agent is especially significant to us. It further demonstrates our commitment to remain focused on enhancing Nigerian’s access to financial services, and in so doing, connects them to what is most important to them.”

The MoMo Agent Network compliments existing banking services by extending access to simple money transfer services and other financial services nationwide.

YDFS Director, Usoro Usoro, noted: “Our MoMo Agent network opens up a host of opportunities, creating employment and facilitating business in rural and urban areas. Leveraging MTN’s extensive distribution network and capabilities, we are putting financial services within easy reach.

“Going forward, anyone, anywhere in Nigeria can send and receive money through a MoMo Agent in their neighbourhood. We intend to expand the range of financial services offered once the Central Bank grants approval for a Payment Banking license.”

Y’ello Digital Financial Services plan to rollout about 500,000 Agents spread across all states and the Federal Capital Territory.

Yello Digital Financial Services (YDFS) is a financial service provider licensed to deliver agency banking services under the CBN agent banking framework. It is a subsidiary of MTN Nigeria and operates the MoMo Agent service.

  1. There is no doubt that we really need the help of workers for our everyday work life. But it depends how can we get the good workers. Like if you visit any renowned workers or maid agency then it is for sure you are getting the best maid. But if you are living in Singapore and thinking for hiring a maid in singapore then I'll suggest you try to visit universal maid agency. Because they are the best maid supplier agency in the whole Singapore.

  2. People often don't have much energy after finishing their daily work sessions and can't afford to clean their houses on their own. That's why to save time and money one needs to hire a maid from a good maid agency. To hire maids from the best maid agency in Singapore, visit the Universal Employment Agency.

  3. Absolutely! Shaping the future of financial inclusion in Nigeria is a significant milestone, and it's exciting to witness YDFS taking proactive steps with the MoMo Agent network. The commitment to providing accessible financial services and creating employment opportunities showcases the transformative power of technology in diverse sectors.

    On a different note, if anyone has insights into hiring maids in Singapore, it would be interesting to learn about the experiences and challenges associated with that process. Diverging discussions can sometimes bring unexpected but valuable perspectives.
