Just over 20 banking institutions currently on the ZimSwitch platform have partnered Zimbabwe's second largest mobile phone operator, Telecel, in launching a mobile money service as Zimbabwe pushes for more financial inclusion.

Telecel will today roll out Telecash, a mobile money transfer system as the introduction of more value added services intensify competition in the country's telecoms sector.

The source said Telecash mobile money platform was initially scheduled to be launched last year before Christmas, but due to liquidity challenges in the market, the group had to postpone.
