    Company & Product Updates

    Mono Startup Pitch Kenya

    The Gema winning team and members of the Mono team at the Mono Startup Pitch, Kenya

    Last month, we hosted the Mono Startup Pitch event in partnership with Lateral Frontiers. Our team was in Nairobi and got to meet early-stage startups in East Africa building innovative solutions for users.

    All startups who participated got a chance to pitch their ideas and receive fundraising assistance from top investors who attended.

    We shared highlights from the event and which startup won the $5000 prize money. You can watch a quick recap of it here, or read more on our blog.

    Mono Kenya Connect

    Attendees at the Mono Kenya Connect event

    While in Nairobi, we also hosted our first panel and networking session, Mono Kenya Connect. We got to connect with several Kenyan businesses and shared lessons on building startups and maintaining funding and partnership opportunities. Here are some pictures from the event.

    If you couldn’t attend in person or watch the live session, you can catch up with the recorded video of the event.

    Interchange revenue for USD cards

    Partners who use our virtual USD card issuing service can now use the fetch interchange payouts API to track the interchange revenue amount on USD card transactions, allocated to their business. You can also search the status of your interchange payouts (pending or settled) and filter between dates.
