Pricing

What you pay, announced upfront.

A hidden fee is the number one reason users abandon a financial app. Here is the full pricing table.

Security

A wallet backed by a finance house.

KANU is not a standalone app: it is published by AXIS FINANCE — a public limited company under OHADA law with full governance and compliance frameworks.

Functions falling under regulated activities — in particular market access and the subscription of financial instruments — open only once the required licences have been obtained, or through duly licensed partners.

Our security framework

  • Encryption of data and exchangesIn place
  • User-controlled transaction limitsIn place
  • Immediate blocking in case of lossIn place

No AXIS FINANCE staff member will ever ask for your PIN, by phone or by message.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers.

What sets KANU apart from a standard mobile wallet?

KANU is published by a regulated finance house, not a simple transfer operator. Beyond payments and transfers, it gives access to interest-bearing savings and to investment instruments reviewed by our own research team.

What do I need to open an account?

A valid ID document, a verification selfie and a phone number. The account opens entirely within the app, with no need to visit a branch.

Is my money safe?

Access to your account is protected by a PIN and two-factor authentication. Every transaction triggers a notification, and you set your own limits. If your phone is lost, access can be suspended immediately at no cost.

Can I use KANU without a smartphone?

Yes. A USSD code gives access to your balance, transfers and merchant payments from any phone, with no internet connection required.

What are the fees?

Account opening, account maintenance, transfers between KANU accounts and history export are all free. Other transactions are listed in the pricing table, and their cost is always shown before you confirm.

What happens if I lose my phone?

Call customer service immediately to have access suspended. Suspension is free and takes effect within minutes. Your funds remain available in your account.
