2. Founder’s Vision (First Persona)
I founded GoPay to solve a problem I experienced daily — the inefficiency, leakage, and disorder in Kenya’s public transport system.
Cash is the biggest bottleneck in mobility:

GoPay is my solution:
A unified digital platform that transforms how transport money flows — securely, transparently, and in real-time.
