Our Story

At Lipaworld, we are driven by a mission born from personal experience and a deep commitment to making a difference. As immigrants now residing in the US and the UK, we faced the challenge of sending money to our loved ones in South Africa, DR Congo, and Zimbabwe. The existing solutions failed to meet our needs, particularly for informal and undocumented recipients. This personal pain point motivated us to create Lipaworld, a platform designed to address the unique financial needs of the African diaspora.

Lipaworld is dedicated to fostering financial inclusion and addressing the needs of the informal and immigrant communities in the USA and abroad. By providing accessible financial services, we empower individuals who have been traditionally excluded from mainstream banking systems. This not only enhances their economic well-being but also contributes to broader social and environmental benefits.

Financial inclusion is a catalyst for poverty reduction and economic development. Through our services, we create opportunities for African immigrants to build credit, save money, and participate more fully in the economy. This, in turn, promotes community development and resilience. Our focus on the immigrant diaspora recognizes the challenges they face in navigating financial systems in a new country. By offering tailored services, we facilitate their integration, contributing to social cohesion and inclusivity.

Our journey is backed by extensive experience in growth, engineering, and technology. With over two decades of experience in app-based marketing, SaaS, health tech, consumer electronics, ride-hailing, and financial technology, we bring a wealth of knowledge to our venture. Having worked for well-established tech companies in Africa and abroad we understand the intricacies of scaling businesses and driving growth.

At Lipaworld, we are more than just a financial service provider and marketplace; we are a team passionate about making a meaningful impact on our customers. We are committed to bridging the gap in the informal economy and providing the immigrant diaspora with the tools they need to thrive. Join us on this journey to create a more inclusive and equitable financial future for all.
