The war for Africa’s everyday payments has a new frontline: the supermarket till. In this episode of Empire & Legacy, we dive into the high-stakes battle between Absa — one of the continent’s banking heavyweights — and Shoprite’s Money Market, a low-cost, high-convenience fintech platform embedded right where millions shop.

You’ll discover:

  • How embedded finance is shifting power from banks to retailers.

  • CEO strategies for winning unbanked and underbanked markets.

  • The regulatory and macroeconomic forces shaping payments in Africa up to 2025.

  • Why foot traffic might be the most valuable currency in financial services.
