The MINT Fintech Hackathon

Digital Lending & Credit Scoring for Non-Clients

Within this framework, MINT by EGBANK is calling out to entrepreneurs and startups who can think outside the box, to unlock disruptive powers of technology to help the unbanked customer get access to lending, in a cross-industry use-case, using smart digital tools, real time data and new access channels in Egypt.

 

The BENEFIT Virtual Hackathon

Digitizing SME payments

Currently micro and SMEs may not choose to use merchant version of BenefitPay as they may not have a corporate bank account or do not want to pay transaction fees. Other POS related payment solutions may not be feasible as well. Many of these businesses choose to use individual version of BenefitPay which could be used on one device and does not offer integration with the shop system.

Optimizing SME Credit Scoring

The current credit scoring of SMEs is lengthy and time consuming process, which beside other reasons discourage banks from lending SMEs. Also, it may make not feasible for SMEs to borrow, as they have to bear operational expenses during the wait period to receive funds they need for business.
