Introduction.

MoyaApp emerged as a game-changing competitor to Meta-owned WhatsApp, establishing itself as the first real challenger in the South African market. With impressive achievements of 10+ million downloads, 6 million monthly active users, and 4 million daily active users, MoyaApp revolutionised the messaging landscape.

The Collaboration.

Since October 2020, Monkey & River has been an integral partner in MoyaApp’s journey. Leveraging a large team of skilled designers and developers, Monkey & River undertook the end-to-end design and development of the MoyaPay Mobile Wallet UI, cementing their position as a trusted technical ally.
