Story
Skytech Horizon started as a money vendor kiosk for a deprived location in Africa that solved online money transactions for the less-fortunate people who are unable to obtain a bank account or a steady job, then grew to a multi-location business throughout West African countries such as Burkina Faso, Mali, Ivory Coast, Niger, and Egypt. Then, due to the experience that was accumulated by Skytech Horizon to solve people's financial problems within the African region, the business became an idea a solution... to utilize the same concept in other countries and regions.
