Mission Mobile finances smartphones for consumers through mobile-network operators and retailers, using live cash-flow underwriting while carrying the device-credit risk for its partners.
More than 80% of South Africa's mobile connections are prepaid, leaving many people outside traditional handset contracts, while Mission Mobile's Beam platform assesses how customers earn and spend to make smartphone financing available to people conventional checks may overlook. DNI's up-to-R500-million backing gives Mission Mobile capital to fund more devices and expand propositions through network operators, but the mostly debt-based structure makes repayment performance and operator adoption central to whether the model scales.
