Africa’s Fintech Rise: The Hidden Builders
While apps and neobanks grab the headlines, the real backbone of Africa’s fintech boom is being shaped by infrastructure firms working quietly behind the scenes.
Companies like Yoco, Peach Payments, and Stitch have laid the foundation for digital transactions. But even deeper, firms such as Alumna Capital and Numeral Group are engineering the APIs, credit frameworks, and compliance systems that make large-scale fintech possible.
These aren’t the companies chasing hype—they’re building resilience, ensuring systems hold under regulatory shifts, economic stress, and market disruptions.
Their legacy? Platforms built to last, not just trend.
