Wekeza App Brings Financial Power to the African and Caribbean Diaspora

For many in the African and Caribbean diaspora, access to culturally relevant financial education and affordable investing has been out of reach. Wekeza, a new app available on iOS and Android, is changing that narrative by combining education, investing, and community engagement in one powerful platform.

With multilingual financial education, Wekeza helps users learn how to budget, save, build credit, and invest through interactive lessons available in English, French, Swahili, Haitian Creole, Yoruba, Twi, Zulu, Hausa, and more—designed to reflect and honor diverse cultural experiences.

The app also makes wealth-building more accessible than ever. Through direct partnerships with trusted broker-dealers, Wekeza enables users to invest in U.S. stocks and ETFs starting from just $1 per month, with no high minimums or hidden fees.

Wekeza’s commitment to the community extends beyond the app’s features. Live town halls with licensed diaspora financial experts provide users with the opportunity to get real-time advice and actionable guidance from professionals who understand their financial realities.

Recognized for its impact, Wekeza offers an award-winning curriculum for families, schools, and communities, trusted by educators and local governments to make financial literacy accessible to all ages.

With bank-grade security and an unwavering commitment to transparency, Wekeza ensures that users can manage and grow their finances with confidence.

By blending education, cultural relevance, and practical investing tools, Wekeza is more than an app—it’s a movement toward financial freedom for the African and Caribbean diaspora worldwide.
