What is Chipper Cash App Uganda all about?

Chipper Cash was founded by a partnership between Ham Serunjogi, a Ugandan, and Ghanaian Maijid Moujaled in 2018 to offer a no-fee peer-to-peer cross-border payment service in Africa via its app. Its services are used across seven African countries — Ghana, Uganda, Nigeria, Tanzania, Rwanda, South Africa, and Kenya. This year, the company began to make strides outside the continent. In May, it expanded to the United Kingdom and to the United States in September, allowing users to send money from the European nations to Chipper Cash’s African markets.

When it comes to Uganda, Chipper Cash supports payments from MTN and Airtel, which are the major mobile money platforms. One can send and receive money across all these mobile money platforms using Chipper Cash, any time, at no cost.

Chipper Cash launched and expanded its Stock-trading feature dubbed U.S. fractional stocks in Uganda. According to Investopia, A fractional share is a portion of an equity stock that is less than one full share.

This means users can invest on a dollar equivalent basis (i.e., fractional shares) in over 6,000 U.S. securities and ETFs, with little or no minimum requirements. Starting with UGX 3500 you can invest in U.S./international equities and build a global portfolio that lasts through time since over 1,000 global companies are listed.
