what's Ejara?

Ejara is a mobile investment and savings app tailored for francophone Africans and the diaspora. It enables users to open decentralized non-custodial wallets, buy and sell cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins, and access fractional shares. The platform emphasizes security with features like ISO 27001 certification and offers interest-bearing savings products starting from small amounts like 1000 CFA, promoting financial inclusion in regions with limited traditional banking. Ejara leverages blockchain technology for innovative financial services, including a partnership with the Starknet Foundation to build next-generation DeFi infrastructure on Starknet L2. This includes developing tokenized bonds, real-world asset (RWA) solutions, and low-cost savings/investment tools optimized for mobile-first users in Africa, abstracting blockchain complexity via USSD support and on-chain integrations.

Ejara partnered with Starknet for financial inclusion services in Africa.
