Tese was born from a simple reality: African creators move the culture, but the money rarely reaches them. Africa has world-class talent, but not the infrastructure for creators to earn consistently from their work.
Founded by Smatech Group, we set out to bridge this gap by building a creator-first monetisation platform that understands African bandwidth, payment methods and audiences.
We started in Zimbabwe, working side by side with local creators to prove that audiences are willing to pay when you make it easy. Now we're taking that same creator-first approach across the continent. Tiri Tese – together we thrive.
