Mojo Payments LTD, a leading payment service provider, has officially launched the MojoPay Innovation Hub, a pioneering initiative designed to accelerate innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital financial inclusion in Ghana and across Africa.
The Hub is envisioned as a collaborative ecosystem where startups, innovators and industry players can access resources, mentorship, and partnerships to scale solutions that address Africa’s most pressing challenges in financial technology, commerce, and livelihoods.
To bring this vision to life, MojoPay has partnered with MEST Africa, the pan-African technology training and incubation program; the Association of Ghana Startups (AGS), the national body advocating for entrepreneurship in Ghana; and the Global Impact Accelerator Corp (GIAC), an international accelerator dedicated to supporting high-impact ventures in emerging markets.
The Hub also welcomes a growing community of innovators and early members, including Agropayy, a digital payment and agritech platform supporting farmers and Agro-businesses, and Laterpay, a buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) solution tailored for African markets.
“The MojoPay Innovation Hub is designed to be a launchpad for entrepreneurs building Africa’s digital future,”. Through our partnerships with MEST, AGS, GIAC, and visionary startups like Agropayy and Laterpay, we are creating an ecosystem that supports innovation from concept to scale with the right infrastructure, mentorship, and market access,” said Saqib Nazir, CEO, Mojo Payments Ltd.
Focus Areas of the Hub
The MojoPay Innovation Hub will support startups and innovators across seven key pillars including: Startup Acceleration which is a mentorship, capacity building, and market entry support, Technology & Product Development, leveraging MojoPay’s infrastructure for scalable solutions, Regulatory & Compliance Support, helping startups navigate licensing, governance, and industry regulations, Business Advisory, strategic guidance on operations, fundraising, and business modelling, Access to Capital, linking entrepreneurs with local and global investors, Demand Generation, enabling startups to connect with customers through campaigns and partnerships and Community Building & Policy Advocacy, by fostering collaboration among regulators, investors, and industry leaders.
Through this holistic approach, the Hub aims to position Ghana as a hub for inclusive fintech innovation and digital entrepreneurship, while creating scalable opportunities across Africa. The Hub will kick off with a series of events, workshops, and accelerator programs in the coming months.
