Flowteller

Flowteller is a Tanzanian last-mile network platform for fintechs, businesses, and enterprises that need local merchants and agents to deliver digital services in person to end customers.

Key capabilities include:

• Merchant and agent network deployment, enabling businesses to reach customers through community-based service points
• In-person transactions, where merchants process payments and support other digital services for everyday consumers
• Ticket sales via merchants, helping partners distribute and sell tickets offline through local shops
• POS terminal enablement, including deployment of tools and mini-apps on POS devices to support service delivery and new merchant revenue streams

Available on Web and Android (including an Android app listed as “Flowteller Service Point”).

It is designed for a B2B2C model, serving fintechs and other organisations that want to expand distribution without building a physical branch network, while merchants act as on-the-ground operators.

Flowteller is notable in the African context for focusing on Africa’s offline population and community commerce in Tanzania and beyond, using an agent-based model to bring digital services closer to customers and create local economic value.
