Abstract
AbstractThis case study looks at how the use of mobiles for transferring cash can make access to government subsidies more effective. The technological innovation of money transfer using mobile phones is made in the context of Niger, one of the lowest-ranked countries on the UN’s Human Development Index. Through the process of iterative implementation and collaboration across multiple stakeholders, the case study demonstrates how mobile money technology can reach the poor and help improve well-being.
