Services

Tengata is more than one payment flow.

The platform is built around TUAS as a unified account layer for diaspora users, local residents, SMEs, and partners. From there, Tengata expands into payments, FX, credit, investing, protection, cultural-development finance, and practical education.

How the platform fits together

TUAS is the shared account and compliance layer. The services below extend outward from that base so users can move from onboarding to sending, managing currencies, borrowing, protecting households, and investing without restarting the relationship every time.

This matters because Tengata is designed for both diaspora and local market participation, not only one corridor or one remittance use case.

What users should understand first

  • One account can support multiple service journeys over time.
  • Availability depends on regional compliance, licensing, and partner rollout.
  • Pricing and onboarding requirements may differ by product and corridor.
  • Investment, protection, and credit access are part of the platform direction, not an afterthought.

TUAS

One multi-currency account for diaspora and local users

TUAS is the unified account layer across Tengata. It is designed to give individuals and businesses one onboarding path, one reusable identity and compliance profile, and one account experience across regions.

  • Multi-currency account experience
  • One onboarding and identity layer
  • Links to bank accounts and mobile money

Tengata Pay

Remittances, domestic payments, wallets, and merchant pay

  • Cross-border remittances and payout flows
  • Domestic transfers and requests for payment
  • Merchant and business payment support

TengataFX

  • Treasury and hedging support over time

Tengata Credit

Diaspora-backed lending, SME credit, and BNPL pathways

Credit products are aimed at households, entrepreneurs, and SMEs that need responsible access to capital. The platform direction includes diaspora-backed models, working-capital support, and installment finance.

  • Household and diaspora-linked lending
  • SME and entrepreneur credit access
  • Structured repayment and underwriting controls

Tengata Invest

Curated local, regional, and global investment access

  • Diaspora-linked and development-oriented themes
  • Regional and global portfolio access
  • Curated opportunities instead of open-ended speculation

Tengata Protect

Micro-insurance and parametric protection products

Cultural and creative-industry finance

Tengata Cultural Development Finance is built to channel capital into cultural, creative, and community-building ventures that are often underserved by conventional finance.

  • Creative and cultural project finance
  • Community-building and heritage-linked opportunities
  • Capital pathways beyond remittance consumption

Academy

Literacy, entrepreneurship, and diaspora education

Academy is the learning layer around the platform. It is meant to improve financial literacy, strengthen entrepreneurship, and help diaspora and local users make better-informed decisions.

  • Financial and investment literacy
  • Entrepreneurship and SME guidance
  • Diaspora and local user education

Availability and rollout

Not every service is available in every market at the same time. Tengata's rollout depends on regional compliance, local partners, and product readiness. The platform direction is broad by design, but access will expand in stages rather than all at once.
