A digital platform, AnyworkX app, designed to address the challenges service providers and customers in the e-commerce space experience in their online transactions has been launched.
This application, a product of X-agon Digital Solutions Limited, will also improve productivity in the service industry, where the rapid growth of internet penetration and mobile telephony has created a clear path for its emergence.
Speaking on the new product, the Executive Director for Product and Strategy at X-agon, Mr Bolaji Bayo-Tijani, said, “We have created a transformative and inclusive platform that overcomes challenges faced by Africans while financially empowering them.
“AnyworkX aims to provide a platform that brings together service providers across Africa, creating a larger market and boosting income generation and economic empowerment in Africa.”
He further said, “Traditional methods of finding service providers are time-consuming, unreliable, and often lack the desired quality. AnyworkX is here to change that.”
Expatiating on the product’s security, he disclosed that AnyworkX prioritizes safety and security, implementing a comprehensive verification process for all users before they can transact on the app.
According to him, this mandatory verification ensures the elimination of identity fraud and builds a foundation of trust among users, noting that the platform also offers a secure in-app wallet, facilitating convenient and protected transactions, thus eliminating payment trust issues during service exchanges.
Mr Bayo-Tijani stressed that AnyworkX doesn’t just stop at solving the immediate problem of connecting customers with service providers; it envisions a future where the service industry in Africa thrives, adding that the platform will contribute significantly to the African economy by creating a borderless marketplace for services and fostering economic growth and enhanced livelihoods.
“Our vision is to be the leading e-ordering app in Africa by 2025. With AnyworkX, we are not just creating an app; we are building a community, empowering individuals, and driving economic growth across the continent,” he submitted.
It was stated that AnyworkX is not just another app; it is a comprehensive online marketplace that aggregates a wide range of services, covering over 200 categories, including fashion designing, plumbing, electricity, and photography, among others.
