Useful digital services, built for Africa.
A technology company based in Yaoundé, Afola Group designs and runs digital products that make everyday life simpler: less waiting, more transparency, secure payments. Our first product, Afola Travel, lets people book their bus ticket online in Cameroon.
Who we are
A company that starts from everyday problems
We believe technology should first be useful. Every Afola product starts from a concrete pain point shared by thousands of people, and aims for a solution that is simple, reliable and works from a phone.
Real needs
We start from the field: queues, unclear prices, cash payments. We build what is genuinely missing.
Mobile first
Our services are designed for the phone and for the payment methods our users already rely on, such as Orange Money and MTN MoMo.
Built on trust
Secure payments, clear rules, human support: trust is earned with every transaction.
Our first product
Afola Travel: intercity travel without the queue
Afola Travel brings travel agencies together on a single platform: compare departures, pick your seat, pay from your phone and get your ticket instantly.
- Search and compare trips, times, classes and fares from several agencies
- Pick your seat on the bus map
- Pay with Afola Wallet, topped up with Orange Money or MTN Mobile Money
- Downloadable tickets, cancellation and refunds to the wallet
- Trip requests when the departure you need does not exist yet
Our motto
Connect · Unify · Transform
Three words that sum up why we exist and guide each of our products.
01
Connect
Link cities, people and services. Afola Travel connects travellers and travel agencies on a single platform.
02
Unify
Bring together in one place what used to be scattered: offers, payments, information and support.
03
Transform
Lastingly improve everyday habits through technology: less waiting, more transparency, more trust.
What guides us
Four principles behind every product
They shape our choices, from the design of a screen to the answer given by support.
Simplicity
A service should be understood in seconds, without a manual.
Transparency
Visible prices, written rules and clear information at every step.
Reliability
Solid, secure systems, because people trust us with their money and their time.
Closeness
A reachable team, and products built with and for the people who use them.
Our method
From the field to the product, and back again
We move in short cycles, listening to users and partners at every step.
