Ghana’s Seevcash Raises USD 333 K From Stellar To Expand Cross-Border Payments

Ghanaian fintech Seevcash has raised USD 333 K through the Stellar Community Fund (SCF) and affiliated ecosystem programmes, bringing its total support from the Stellar ecosystem across four awards.

Founded in 2022 by Dawuda Iddrisu, Charles Owusu and Cosmos Appiah, Seevcash is headquartered in Accra, Ghana, with a US incorporation, and provides low-cost cross-border payments and peer-to-peer money transfers for African diaspora communities.

The platform allows users to send and request money and manage funds across borders, using blockchain infrastructure including the Stellar network. The company says it has more than 25,000 users across five countries.

Alongside the funding, Seevcash has launched a Visa card that lets users spend their funds online and in person wherever Visa is accepted, building on its partnership with MoneyGram.
