While the Coronavirus may have forced organisations to adjust the way they operate, at Global Accelerex, it has not halted either our progress or our commitment to extend financial inclusion, improve the daily lives of people through the provision of bespoke e-payment solutions and our quest to spur growth of our business partners.

“COVID-19, as devastating as it has been, also opened new possibilities for digital innovations especially in financial service delivery. Financial service providers that will stay ahead of the competition in the post COVID-19 era are the ones that will reimagine their products to solve real problems digitally.

As a financial technology company with expertise and experience across Africa, we bring to the Ghanaian market, a commitment to support financial service providers innovate their service delivery processes to delight their customers. Talk to us first if you need payment or collection solutions,” says Sebastian Yalley, Chief Executive Officer of Accelerex Ghana.

Although Accelerex is not immune to the wider impact of the Coronavirus pandemic particularly on the economy, as a financial technology player, we see opportunities to innovate, increase demand for alternative channels from end-users, increase in demand for digital solutions from service providers and to diversify our product mix to meet demand in the face of the crisis.
