I used to be very scared of mobile banking and only used basic mobile money for transfers. This course has completely changed how I manage my money! I now use apps for savings, bill payments, and even investments. The security module especially gave me confidence that I can use these tools safely. The step-by-step videos were easy to follow, and I appreciated the live demos where I could ask questions.
As a small shop owner, I've been losing customers because I didn't accept digital payments. After taking this course, I've set up MTN MoMo Pay, Vodafone Cash merchant account, and even QR codes for my business. My sales have increased by about 30% since implementing what I learned. The comparison of different payment platforms helped me choose what works best for my business without paying excessive fees.
This course delivers exactly what it promises - practical guidance on using digital financial tools in Ghana. I particularly liked the sections on avoiding transaction fees and using fintech apps for savings. The course could benefit from more content on international money transfer options for those of us with family abroad, but overall it was excellent and has saved me both time and money in managing my finances.
While a smartphone will allow you to access the full range of digital financial tools covered, we also include sections specifically for feature phone users, including USSD banking and basic mobile money commands. Some portions of the course address smartphone-specific apps, but approximately 60% of the content is applicable regardless of phone type. For the best learning experience, access to either a smartphone or computer during the course is recommended.
Absolutely! Security is a major focus of this course. We dedicate an entire module to digital financial security, covering common scams in Ghana, how to create and manage secure passwords, safe transaction practices, and what to do if your account is compromised. Throughout all modules, we emphasize security best practices specific to each platform. Many students report that the security knowledge gained from this course is what finally gave them confidence to embrace digital financial tools.
This course was specifically designed for people with varying levels of technical comfort, including beginners. We start with basics and gradually progress to more advanced features. Our step-by-step video tutorials show every tap and click needed, and we avoid technical jargon. Many of our most satisfied students are those who previously considered themselves "not tech-savvy." The course is paced to build your confidence gradually, and our live demo sessions allow you to ask questions about anything you find challenging.
The course covers all major mobile money platforms in Ghana, including MTN Mobile Money, Vodafone Cash, and AirtelTigo Money in detail. For banking apps, we provide specific tutorials for the digital platforms of Ghana's eight largest banks: GCB Bank, Ecobank, Fidelity Bank, Stanbic Bank, Zenith Bank, Absa Bank, Access Bank, and Cal Bank. We also cover popular fintech apps like Zeepay, expressPay, Mazzuma, and DreamOval products. The principles taught can be applied to other platforms not specifically mentioned.
No, you don't need to have existing accounts to benefit from the course. We walk you through the account creation process for each platform. However, to practice what you learn, you may want to set up at least one mobile money account and online banking access during the course. This is not mandatory, and you can still learn the principles without immediate implementation. Many students choose which services they want to use after learning about the different options in the course.
The course includes video tutorials, screen recordings, downloadable guides, and interactive elements. All materials are accessed through our learning platform, which works on computers, tablets, and smartphones. Once enrolled, you'll receive login details to access the course. You'll have lifetime access to the materials, including any updates we make to the content as digital financial services in Ghana evolve. Live sessions are conducted via Zoom, and recordings are made available for those who cannot attend.
