Vodacom Tanzania has announced a partnership with DStv Tanzania that will enable subscribers to access the digital television service via the MyDStv App within the M-Pesa app.
Vodacom’s aim is to establish M-Pesa as a Super App and ecosystem, similar to that of Google Play store or App Store, in which other apps can integrate and operate.
The operator has built a framework where partners can develop mini applications that are not only relevant but also cater to the day-to-day needs of customers, and in return, gain access to one of Tanzania’s largest consumer bases.
