MobileMoney Fintech LTD Rolls Out Nationwide KYC Update for Agents and Merchants to Enhance Security

 MobileMoney, KYCMobileMoney Fintech LTD (MMFL) has commenced a nationwide Know Your Customer (KYC) update exercise for all Mobile Money (MoMo) Agents and Merchants as part of efforts to strengthen the security of Ghana's mobile money ecosystem, improve the accuracy of customer records, safeguard businesses against fraud and other financial crimes, and meet regulatory requirements.

The exercise, which is currently ongoing, will end on October 31, 2026. To support the exercise, MMFL has set up designated hotspot locations in various towns where Agents and Merchants can update their records through the Smart Onboarding Portal. They may also complete the update independently via https://momoonboarding.mtn.com.gh/login.

Agents and Merchants should have the following documents available before starting the update:

  • A valid Ghana Card
  • Relevant business registration documents, such as a Business Registration Certificate
  • Form A or C
  • Municipal or District Assembly Certificate

The update process takes only a few minutes to complete once the required documents are available. Agents and Merchants will also receive SMS notifications at every stage of the process — from submission through verification and approval — to keep them informed of their application status.

Speaking on the importance of the exercise, Abdul Razak Issaka Ali, Chief Commercial Operations Officer at MobileMoney Fintech LTD, said the initiative reflects the company's commitment to protecting the businesses of its partners while maintaining a secure and trusted digital financial ecosystem.

"As mobile money continues to play a critical role in the daily lives of millions of Ghanaians, maintaining accurate records is essential to protecting the integrity of the ecosystem and ensuring uninterrupted service delivery. Our Agents and Merchants are at the heart of the Mobile Money ecosystem, and protecting their businesses remains a priority for us.”

This KYC update is an important step in ensuring our records remain accurate, strengthening security across the network, and meeting regulatory requirements. We encourage all Agents and Merchants to complete the process early to continue enjoying seamless and secure Mobile Money services,” he added.

Agents and Merchants who do not complete the KYC update by the stipulated deadline may experience service restrictions until their records have been successfully updated. For support, they can contact their Territory Sales Coordinators (TSCs), visit the nearest MobileMoney Customer Service (MCS) outlet, or engage their Agent Association leadership.

MMFL reminds all Agents and Merchants to remain vigilant against fraud during the exercise. Agents and Merchants should only use official MMFL channels for the KYC update and should never disclose their Mobile Money PIN or One-Time Password (OTP) to anyone.

MobileMoney Fintech LTD remains committed to building Ghana’s digital future together while unlocking growth and opportunities for everyone through financial solutions that empower individuals, businesses, and communities to thrive.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability. The report also highlights that Ghana is relatively less vulnerable to increasing trade restrictions from the United States, given that its primary exports—gold and crude oil—are not directly affected by the tariffs introduced by President Trump’s administration. Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs). The intervention, which benefited eleven BDCs, is part of the central bank’s broader strategy to stabilise the cedi and ensure price stability in the petroleum downstream sector. Held on Tuesday, April 29, the auction was priced at a locked exchange rate of GHS 14.28 to the US dollar, with bid offers ranging from GHS 13.85 to GHS 15.55. This move reflects the BoG’s continued effort to deepen forex liquidity and safeguard the domestic fuel supply chain against volatility in global energy markets. By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
