Frequently asked questions
What age groups does the school savings club target?+
The Club des Épargnants welcomes savers aged 6 to 20 and operates in more than 5,000 primary establishments across Togo. Weekly contributions follow the school rhythm, so repetition builds automatic saving habits. Children then encourage wider family participation in everyday money routines.
How does the family account bring households into banking?+
One opening can bring several household members into the system at once, reflecting an average household of 5.2 people. Women, who manage most of the family budget, stand at the centre of the approach. Goal based saving and diaspora links support the whole foyer over time.
Which countries does Ollo Africa serve?+
Deployment focuses on the UEMOA zone, starting from Togo with a regional outlook toward mass banking habits. A partner wallet network extends reach across 34 countries for wider African coverage. Everyday school, family and group routines remain the core path to active accounts.
What is the TrustScore and what does it unlock?+
The TrustScore records regular contributions made through digitised solidarity groups on Ohana Africa. Consistent participation builds trust within the group routine and secures shared savings habits. A strong record then opens access to micro credit and longer term retirement saving.
Where is Ollo Africa based?+
