Mobile money is transforming finance in Malawi, bringing banking to rural communities where traditional banks are scarce. Services like Airtel Money and TNM Mpamba allow users to send, receive, and save money via their phones. A recent article by Henri Maduka highlights how these tools empower small-scale farmers and vendors by simplifying transactions. For example, a farmer in Machinga can now pay for seeds without traveling to a bank. Yet, challenges like limited network coverage and digital literacy gaps remain. With over 60% of Malawians owning cellphones, mobile money is a game-changer, but scaling it requires better infrastructure and education.
