Koree

Koree is a mobile cashback and digital loyalty app for consumers shopping at partner merchants in Cameroon and the wider Francophone Africa market, designed to turn rewards and small change into a usable digital balance.

Key capabilities include:

• Digital loyalty cards: Create and store loyalty cards for partner shops by scanning a merchant QR code or adding a merchant ID in the app.
• Cashback on purchases: Earn cashback when shopping with partner merchants by presenting a QR code at checkout, with rewards credited to the user’s balance.
• Digital spare change (“monnaie”): Replace physical coins by having merchants credit remaining change directly to the user’s Koree wallet or loyalty card.
• Spend earned balance in-store: Use accumulated cashback and digitized change to pay in partner stores, with the app presented as 100% free for consumers (no subscription or transaction fees).

Available on Android and iOS.

It follows a B2B2C model, serving partner merchants that run loyalty and reward programs, while end consumers use the app to collect cashback and spare change across a network of partner stores (the website mentions 40+ stores).

Koree is notable in Central and Francophone Africa for directly addressing the scarcity of small change at checkout by digitizing coins and rewards into a single mobile wallet, and it is described as the first cashback application in Francophone Africa.
