We give millions of people a pathway to ownership with an M-KOPA device that sits at the heart of the home or palm of the hand, connecting lights, smartphones, radios, TVs, fridges and more. This creates shared value by making people healthier, wealthier and more productive.

We empower our customers with financing to own their futures with high-quality products and services that improve quality of life. Solar provides light to keep businesses open for longer, while Phones connect micro-merchants with suppliers, customers and the wider world for jobs and upskilling.

Nearly half of our customers acknowledge that their M-KOPA product enables them to support incomes, whether that is getting a new job, working longer hours, or supporting a business. By unlocking over $400 million in loans for customers, customers have gone on to generate more than $86 million in income for local economies and $467 million in savings for household budgets.

Smartphones and TVs are gateways for customers to access knowledge and information previously out of reach.

While 75% of people in Sub-Saharan Africa remain unconnected to the internet – our innovative financing model unlocks access to mobile internet, with 30% of customers reporting first-time internet users and growing 250 people a day. Now customers enjoy the benefits of being online and use technology confidently to improve their day-to-day lives.

Empowering nearly 3.5 million individuals with solar energy in Africa today safeguards our plant and climate for generations to come.

Access to PAYG Solar has enabled millions of customers to cease emitting 2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide and black carbon into the environment. Moreover, customers’ e-waste recycling has, in turn, given a second life to refurbished phones and solar systems through circular economy principles – inviting over 60,000 more onto the PAYG pathway.
