Tendar at Moonshot 2024: Redefining Lending for Africa’s Digital Future

This October, Lagos played host to one of Africa’s most anticipated tech gatherings, the Moonshot by TechCabal Conference 2024. With a crowd of over 3,500 tech enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, and investors, this year's theme, “Building for the World,” emphasized the challenges and opportunities African startups encounter as they expand onto the global stage. Among the groundbreaking innovators was Tendar, standing tall as a force in digital transformation, particularly within Africa’s lending sector.

Moonshot 2024 with 54 Collective brought together Africa’s leading tech minds, thinkers and doers tackling some of the continent’s most pressing problems. From fintech to Agtech, to Healthcare, and so on, the conference offered a unique blend of solution-driven discussions and visionary insights. Founders from across various sectors shared experiences and innovations designed to push Africa forward on the global tech map.

Tendar: Driving Digital Lending Solutions

Tendar was no stranger to the spotlight at Moonshot 2024. The team set up an interactive booth where attendees could learn more about Tendar’s digital lending solutions, an exciting offering transforming how businesses and individuals access loans.

Throughout the two-day event, Tendar's team engaged with founders, investors, and potential clients. As financial inclusion continues to be a major hurdle across Africa, Tendar’s solutions offer a streamlined, digital-first approach that is not only efficient but built for Africa’s unique challenges. We also had an amazing opportunity to pitch at 54 Collective’s Gen F, a dynamic accelerator program designed to empower African entrepreneurs.

Here are a few things we talked about:

1. Seamless Lending Experience: Tendar’s digital platform simplifies the lending process, from application to approval, all without the traditional pain associated with loans.
2. KYC and Credit Scoring: By integrating robust KYC (Know Your Customer) solutions and using advanced data analytics for credit scoring, Tendar ensures that even previously underbanked individuals and businesses can access loans easily and securely.
3. Impact on Financial Inclusion: Tendar’s efforts are driving a new wave of financial inclusion across Africa, with lending solutions designed for underserved markets and sectors. This, in turn, is fueling entrepreneurial growth and fostering a more robust financial ecosystem.

Africa’s lending industry has long been plagued by inefficiencies, from lengthy approval processes to inaccessible credit for small businesses. We are bridging this gap, using cutting-edge tech to provide instant approvals and personalized lending solutions. By leveraging AI, automation, and mobile-friendly platforms, Tendar is making it easier for individuals and SMEs to secure loans and build credit history, accelerating financial growth and economic development.

The Booth to Be Tendar's booth at Moonshot wasn’t just about tech jargon and product demos. It was a space for rich conversations about the future of finance in Africa. Attendees ranging from fellow startups to global investors approached the Tendar team with questions about how they could integrate Tendar’s digital solutions into their own businesses or lives.

Whether it was curious visitors asking about Tendar’s security features or local entrepreneurs excited about how easily they could access funds to grow their businesses, the booth was alive with dialogue, curiosity, and potential partnerships.
