Sponsors

This event in iceland has a few expenses and as such I am looking for sponsorship that will go towards my partaking in the event itself, which include everything from entry fees, flights and all the bits of kit that have been described as ‘indispensable’ by a number of ultra athletes whom I have been in touch with.

I am therefore very happy to announce that I have gained significant support from Paynet a respected provider of e-banking services the the financial sector in East Africa. Services offered by the organisation include corporate payments, bill payments, consultancy, card services and ATM & POS management services.

As quoted from the company profile at http://www.paynet.co.ke/index.php:

"Today, Paynet has a proven track record in providing management services to the financial services sector through its comprehensive portfolio of electronic based products and services. These are built upon the company’s unique architecture and assist financial institutions to rapidly launch market leading products that allow them to become the provider of choice for consumer, SME and corporate customers. Paynet currently services customers in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda and is truly an African based organisation."

Among many of Paynet's notable achievements is the development of M-Pesa which is considered the the leading mobile money solution globally. Allowing unbanked users to withdraw cash from ATM's without cards. This system has been adapted to the developed world by Barclays with their 'Ping-it' app.

Since the charity which I am raising money towards is Kenyan, I am immensely happy and grateful to have an African based organisation such as Paynet supporting me in this challenge.
