Ooredoo Fintech Tunisia Launches Walletii, a Secure and Inclusive Digital Financial Service

Ooredoo Fintech Tunisia has announced that it has obtained authorization from the Central Bank of Tunisia to launch walletii by Ooredoo in the Tunisian market, marking a major milestone in the development of secure and inclusive digital financial services in the country.

This advancement reinforces Ooredoo Fintech Tunisia's commitment to offering regulated, reliable, and easy-to-use digital payment solutions across the country, while supporting Tunisia's national strategy for digital transformation and financial inclusion.

The launch of walletii by Ooredoo is based on a solid network of local partners, including the national payment operator in Tunisia. Supported by Ooredoo's robust infrastructure and the trust associated with its brand, these collaborations ensure seamless integration into the national financial ecosystem and full compliance with regulatory frameworks and national payment systems.

Designed as a simple and intuitive digital financial companion, walletii by Ooredoo enables users to easily perform daily transactions, including bill payments, money transfers, and secure cash withdrawals. Leveraging the proven experience of its parent company, Ooredoo Fintech International, in operating digital financial services in Qatar, Oman, and the Maldives, the service brings internationally validated expertise to the Tunisian market.

One of the main advantages of walletii by Ooredoo is its vast distribution network, courtesy of its privileged partner, Ooredoo Tunisia, which is the most extensive and accessible in Tunisia, allowing customers to easily register and perform deposit and withdrawal operations.

This wide coverage plays a key role in strengthening financial inclusion, particularly among unbanked or underbanked populations.

Michelangelo Giacco, CEO of Ooredoo Fintech Tunisia, stated: "This authorization enables us to introduce the walletii brand in Tunisia and offer a proven digital wallet solution on a dynamic and evolving market. Building on our regional expertise, we aim to support consumers and businesses with secure everyday financial tools, contributing to financial inclusion and economic growth."
