Fintech company Orange Money has upgraded its mobile money platform to Comviva’s mobiquity Pay to improve service delivery for Orange Money users in Burkina Faso.  

This platform will enable Orange to expand its payment services through its open architecture and “API-first” design for improving flexibility and integration. 

The platform security system comprises features such as authentication, authorisation, and session management, which said to ensure a secure ecosystem. 

The new platform is a cloud-based solution designed for digital money, wallets, and payments. 

Its architecture is built to scale securely, with a modular design that accelerates the introduction of new services. 

The fixed-cost model is claimed to provide predictable business operations without hidden costs, backed by a bilingual team. 

Orange Money Burkina Faso CEO Christophe Baziemo said: “Orange Money is one of our key growth drivers, contributing significantly to economic and social development in Burkina Faso.  

“We are particularly impressed by mobiquity® Pay’s microservices architecture, open design, and API-first philosophy, which will enable us to significantly expand the Orange Money ecosystem in the region and provide disruptive services to our customers.” 

Comviva CEO Rajesh Chandiramani said: “For over a decade, Comviva has been a trusted partner to Orange, managing the design and technical operations of their platform. Recognising the evolving landscape of mobile money, Orange’s decision to upgrade to mobiquity® Pay reflects its commitment to staying ahead.  

“This upgrade, the first of its kind at this scale in the region, paves the way for transformative advancements in digital payments. We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Orange on their digitisation journey. The extensibility, configurability, and low-code features of mobiquity® Pay will enable them to launch new services at an accelerated pace.” 

This week, Comviva also introduced MobiLytix Rewards 5.0, an AI-powered SaaS platform designed to enhance loyalty programmes through gamification and personalisation across digital channels.
