Firm unveils app to deepen women’s financial inclusion

FinTribe founder Jennifer Awirigwe has reiterated the company's commitment to empowering women financially with the launch of the FinTribe mobile app. Described as a milestone, the app provides a unified platform for Nigerian and African women to save, learn, invest, and connect, making financial independence more accessible.

“

Long before financial inclusion for women became a conversation people were having, we were already building the infrastructure for it with women’s wealth journeys in mind, not just their spending.

The app consolidates various financial tools into a single, seamless experience for FinTribe's community of over 20,000 active members spanning 43 countries. It aims to simplify saving, financial education, and investing, bringing together features that were previously scattered across different platforms.

With the app, every woman who joins us can build wealth on her own terms, at her own pace.

Key functionalities of the app, available on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, include auto-debit savings, investment tracking, instant document requests, on-the-go financial literacy modules, and dedicated community and "tribe rooms." Awirigwe emphasized that FinTribe focuses on women's wealth journeys, enabling them to build wealth at their own pace and on their own terms.

“

For a lot of our members, FinTribe has always been more than a savings platform; it’s a community they trust with their financial journey. With the app, we wanted to make sure that trust translates into convenience.

Sandra Adebayo, Head of Marketing at FinTribe, highlighted the app's role in meeting women where they are, fostering financial confidence, and encouraging participation in capital markets. She noted that FinTribe is more than a savings platform; it's a trusted community. The app's convenience ensures that setting up savings plans, accessing educational content through the Wealth Builders Academy, tracking investments, or requesting documents is streamlined.

Whether it’s setting up a savings plan on auto-debit, learning through our Wealth Builders Academy, tracking an investment, or requesting a document for a visa or job application, everything now lives in one place.
