SmartSwitch Botswana

SmartSwitch Botswana is a close knit group of approximately 25 employees all of whom are proud to be making a difference in Botswana. The success of the electronic food coupon in Botswana has effectively banked 70 000 previously unbanked people in the space of three years. We believe that the foundation has now been laid to offer us a springboard to make a difference in the way in which business is done in Botswana. We have a mission to achieve access to financial services for all throughout Botswana by encouraging banks and other institutions to reach out to where the people are. Approximately 60% of the population in Botswana remain unbanked. Our mission is to change this. And we are doing so STEP BY STEP! SmartSwitch has a vision that by 2016 there will be a number of banks using the extensive network to reach out to the entire country, that it will be everybodys desire to possess and use a smart card due to the low charges, the incredible reach of the network, the ease of use and convenience of the system. People who have not previously been able to securely hold their money whilst earning interest will be able to do so, savings will be encouraged. Our vision fits squarely with the Nations vision of a better society for all. Onward. Upward. No Relenting.
