What is UnityFinance and what do they do?
UnityFinance is a financial services company providing banking and short-term finance solutions to individuals and businesses, primarily in Zambia. Unlike a traditional payment processor, UnityFinance operates as a regulated financial institution, focusing on making financial services more accessible and affordable for formally employed individuals.
Its core services include personal and salary accounts, consumer finance, and the Unicard — a Visa prepaid card designed for secure electronic payments. Through its growing branch network, UnityFinance also provides cash management, loans, and financial advisory services, helping clients manage personal and business finances efficiently.
By combining digital tools with in-person financial services, UnityFinance bridges the gap between traditional banking and modern fintech, offering convenient and compliant financial products to support day-to-day transactions and financial inclusion.
