Will Genfin Launch a Dedicated Mobile App?
Genfin has not publicly announced a dedicated mobile application. Given the rapid maturation of South Africa's fintech sector and the growing trend of mobile-first business management, a dedicated app may be a future development. Check genfin.co.za for product announcements.
