The alliance formed by Société Générale and TagPay aims at facilitating the bank’s expansion while at the same time being closer to their clients. Alexandre Maymat of Société Générale said that adopting a mobile banking system was a necessary step to further their business in the continent as infrastructure costs are rising and the local population is getting more tech-savvy. TagPay was launched in in 2005 and it allows anyone, regardless where they live, to check balance statements, transfer money and pay bills simply with their phone.
