Overview
Egypt's leading consumer fintech super-app platform, offering unsecured consumer lending, buy-now-pay-later services, digital payments, e-commerce, and merchant financing to the country's underbanked population, with operations extending to Turkey, a specialized bank in Pakistan, and a 2024 UAE market entry. MNT-Halan reached a $1.4 billion valuation in June 2026 after an investment round led by Al Ahly Capital (the investment arm of Egypt's National Bank), and is exploring a potential Egyptian Exchange IPO valuing the company at up to $1 billion, working with Citigroup and EFG Hermes.
Strategic Connections
