$4.5 BILLION IN TRANSACTIONS. ONE MILLION+ CUSTOMERS. $31 MILLION+ RAISED. TWO FOUNDERS. ONE IVORIAN FINTECH BUILDING A NEW GENERATION OF BANKING IN FRANCOPHONE AFRICA. The bigger story is how Hassan Bourgi and Régis Bamba, co-founders of Djamo, transformed a startup launched in Abidjan in 2020 into a fast-growing digital financial services platform.
From Côte d'Ivoire to Senegal, Djamo is expanding access to modern banking, savings, investments and business payments. The milestones behind its growth: $4.5 billion+ in transactions processed since launch. One million+ customers across two African markets. $31 million+ raised across its major funding rounds. 10,000+ businesses served through its platform. 5x revenue growth between 2022 and 2025, according to the founders.
Backed by investors including Janngo Capital, Partech and Y Combinator, Djamo is demonstrating how African entrepreneurs can build financial services around the needs of a new generation. What began with a vision to simplify banking is becoming a broader financial ecosystem for individuals and businesses. For Hassan Bourgi and Régis Bamba, the achievement reflects years of entrepreneurship, technology development and expansion across Francophone Africa.
Africa's next banking champions may not emerge from traditional banking institutions. They may emerge from entrepreneurs building financial services around the needs of a new generation.
