Many regions, such as parts of Africa, have experienced an increase in the number of intermittent and unpredictable internet blackouts, throttling or degradation, especially during elections or periods of social unrest. The result is that financial organizations and users are confronting a simple reality: connectivity for them or their customers is never guaranteed.

In economies where people rely on mobile apps to support peer-to-peer transfers, merchant payments and payroll services, even short disruptions can halt transactions, with significant and serious consequences. When Internet connectivity shrinks or disappears, mobile data services are restricted, transactions fail and everyone is impacted. For financial platforms, monetary services and digital marketplaces, your ability to harness networks is the backbone that you and your customers rely on.

Maintaining resilience through Psiphon makes a whole lot of dollars and sense. Psiphon’s global anti-censorship infrastructure, with more than 500 million downloads and millions of users operating in heavily restricted environments every day, demonstrates that secure connections remain functional, even when standard connectivity fails. Embedding Psiphon Forge into mobile financial applications keeps your network and financial channels open, ensuring that users can connect and keep using your services no matter where they are.

The lesson is simple. In contested digital environments, financial network continuity must be a priority, because if users can’t count on the network, they can’t count on your organization, or their money.
