Tigo Mobile Wallet introduced in Senegal
Tigo, which is owned by Millicom Group, is aiming for Tigo Cash to become the preferred payment method in Senegal. Continued uptake of the service supports key objectives around boosting customer loyalty, developing new revenue opportunities, improving subscriber satisfaction and reducing churn.
Diego Camberos, Managing Director of Millicom (Tigo) in Senegal, says: "Mobile financial services are highly important to our subscribers and to drive continued success, it was important for us to speed up an easy to use, secure and reliable offering to market. Ericsson has been an important partner for us in launching Tigo Cash to our entire subscriber base, ensuring that we're able to scale to meet the high demand we anticipate as sign-ups continue to increase."
