Flutterwave, the region’s top payments technology business, released $endmobile, an app that enables quicker and simpler money transfers from the diaspora to the African continent.
According to a release, Tobi Amusan, the Nigerian who holds the women’s 100-meter hurdles world record, was also signed by Flutterwave as Endmobile’s ambassador. The firm claims this was done because of their comparable speeds and tenacity.
The Send Mobile app, which is available on both the Play Store and the App Store, aims to improve the customer experience by making it faster, more transparent, and able to get the user’s money to its destination despite any problems.
Other features include Apple Pay, which will let people with Apple devices do transactions easily from their mobile wallets, an improved activity section that tracks transactions in real time, and a new voucher code section that lets users make voucher cards.
Tobi Amusan, who holds the world record for the 100-meter hurdles, said that she is thrilled to be the face of the product, which she claimed that she already uses.
“Even though I spend a lot of time away from home, I try to see as many of my relatives as I can in Nigeria”. By allowing me to cater to as many of their requirements as I can, $end has made it easier for me to maintain contact with them. “I’m happy to be this product’s face for the African diaspora,” she said.

Why did Flutterwave choose Tobi Amusan?
Olugbenga “GB” Agboola, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Flutterwave, said, “It’s exciting that Tobi is $end’s Ambassador”. Given her speed and efficiency on the track and $endmobile’s quickness in providing cross-border transfers, I’d say it’s a fantastic fit.
Transferring money from the diaspora to Africa for things like tuition, property, healthcare, maintenance, and investments will be much quicker and more convenient with Send Mobile. We’re thrilled about the prospects of working together.
The statement also recommended users download the Send Mobile app for their iOS or Android smartphone from the App Store or Google Play.
In September, the Switching and Processing License was given to Flutterwave by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). With this important license, the business can give customers payment cards directly and handle financial transactions for other fintech companies and financial institutions.
In Kenya, the Asset Recovery Agency (ARA) said that the company used stolen cards and laundered money. Flutterwave disputed the charges that led a Kenyan court to freeze its accounts.
