Our Portfolio

With the strategic acquisition of fintech and customer engagement entities like 2Engage, Crossgate, Tuyu, and Efficacy Payments, AKELO is poised for significant expansion across Africa, the Middle East, and other emerging markets. Further bolstering our portfolio, AKELO has acquired bonsella®, South Africa's largest independent retail shopping rewards program, enhancing our ability to offer proven solutions and tap into an extensive retail and consumer network.

By consolidating these acquisitions into two distinct take-to-market structures — B2B and B2BC — AKELO is set to introduce new channels to market while improving cost efficiencies and market penetration. This recent consolidation of group companies has allowed AKELO to realign key resources for enhanced focus and delivery, leveraging our broad client base for cross-selling opportunities and delivering comprehensive solutions and services.
