Today, I have exciting news for all Ghanaian citizens and businessmen. This great news could change the way you do business or manage your finances. In 2023, Opera successfully rolled out MiniPay, a self-custodial dollar stablecoin wallet integrated into the Opera Mini browser for users all around the world, especially Ghanaians.
While mobile money transactions increased to GH¢1.190 trillion (72.37 billion US dollars) in the first eight months of 2023, difficulties—such as high transaction fees and the impact of taxation on digital transactions—remained persistent despite significant growth. MiniPay was born out of a deep understanding of the challenges Ghanaians face when it comes to navigating the world of digital finance.
MiniPay is a cutting-edge blockchain-based digital wallet built on the CELO network by Opera. It stores your funds in USDT, cUSD, and USDC—stable assets pegged to the US dollar—to ensure that they’re safe from local currency stability issues such as currency devaluation and inflation.
With MiniPay, your transactions are completed in less than 5 seconds and cost less than GH¢ 1, regardless of the amount you are sending. Isn’t this relieving? MiniPay is not just efficient; it’s accessible and easy to use—all you need is a phone number and an email address, no tedious KYCs! It is compact in size—a mere 2 MB, and you can easily login via your Google credentials.
This fast, easy to use, reliable, and user-friendly wallet is available as a standalone app in the Google Play Store and is also now natively integrated into the renowned Opera Mini browser. iOS version is already built and undergoing a pilot testing program—soon to be available publicly.
Now available for Opera Mini users throughout Ghana, MiniPay is a testament to Opera’s commitment to meeting the needs of its local users. A tool for financial empowerment and a window into the opportunities in the world of Web3, the wallet promises its users a new lease on financial services.
