ACCRA, Ghana, Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- GTI Holding, a leading African investment conglomerate based in Ghana, has announced strong momentum across its key market sectors in the first half of 2025.

With a footprint across digital financial services, healthcare innovation, education technology, and strategic infrastructure, GTI Holding continues to deliver on its mission of solving Africa's most pressing problems through scalable, God-centered innovation.

GTI Switch

At the heart of GTI's performance is GTI Switch, the Group's flagship digital infrastructure company, powering transformative fintech experiences across multiple African markets.

As the parent company behind Sao Wallet and Saopay, GTI Switch is redefining digital payment solutions in Africa.

Sao Wallet's globally accessible digital wallet is designed to support peer-to-peer (P2P) and peer-to-business (P2B) transactions across borders.

Saopay alike enhances merchant capabilities through QR code payments, payment links, and mobile-friendly checkouts. It empowers small businesses, market traders, and informal service providers with modern financial tools.

"Together, these platforms represent GTI Holding's long-term commitment to financial inclusion, cashless economies, and secure fintech solutions for emerging markets,"
— Dr. K. S. Watanabe

GTI Bank

GTI Bank achieved two transformative milestones in the first half of the year. Its strategic partnership with Thunes now enables customers to send money digitally to Portugal, UAE, UK, USA, and Germany, positioning GTI Bank as a preferred choice for low-cost cross-border transfers and diaspora remittances.

The bank also signed a collaboration with the Direção Geral das Alfândegas de São Tomé e Príncipe (São Tomé Customs Authority), allowing users to pay customs duties and taxes via the GTI Bank App, reinforcing GTI's role in digitizing government revenue collection.

GTI Healthcare & KATON 360

GTI Healthcare is the group's fast-growing health-tech subsidiary, that has enhanced its diagnostic capabilities with the introduction of X-ray, ultrasound, and ultra scan services.

Its new satellite sample collection center located at Ussher Fort in Accra, also provides underserved communities with easier access to preventative care.

"As part of GTI's wider health mission, the brand is focused on community-based healthcare delivery, diagnostics innovation, and partnerships that expand access to affordable primary care across Africa,"
— Dr. K. S. Watanabe

GTI's education technology arm, KATON 360, continues to support digital transformation in classrooms through national-level smart learning projects.

Its corporate solution, KATON Bizz, is now being adopted by organizations seeking structured remote and hybrid training.

Looking Forward

In the second half of 2025, GTI Holding plans to expand Sao Payment—including Sao Wallet and Saopay—through GTI Switch, enhancing their reach and interoperability to boost financial inclusion.

The company will also scale its diagnostic healthcare infrastructure in Ghana and São Tomé, improving access to quality medical services.

GTI Holding has also mentioned its interest in deepening public-private partnerships to digitize government and institutional payments. The group believes this will drive efficiency and transparency.

The launch of Job Connectz, a digital platform connecting artisans and skilled workers to real-time job opportunities, will empower local talent.

Its RLG Security Services, a licensed subsidiary, will begin operations, providing professional security solutions to estates, businesses, and public institutions, diversifying GTI's portfolio and addressing growing security needs.

"GTI is building a continent-wide value chain where everyday problems are met with agile, scalable, and trustworthy solutions. From digital wallets to diagnostics and job creation, our mission is anchored in impact, trust, and access."
