Editorial interest 73/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

REMA is an Ivorian-founded project proposing mobile payments for rural and low-connectivity areas in Francophone West Africa.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-01 issue.

Field notes

REMA’s homepage frames its proposed service around failed or abandoned mobile-money transactions in rural and “white zone” areas. It identifies three intended groups—rural populations, field agents, and merchants—and offers a newsletter, contact form, and LinkedIn link rather than a product interface. The page names an Ivorian founding team, while a rural image and several biographies remain explicitly marked for completion.
