One of the major hurdles to scaling microfinance operations is a lack of robust core banking software and systems. MicroPlanet helps microfinance institutions over this hurdle by offering state-of-the-art technology solutions combined with world-class systems support. We build long-term partnerships with microfinance institutions who need our technology and support to grow their businesses, scale their operations, and ultimately reach more of the unbanked poor.
Our Solutions
SaaS Solution – Our core offering is a Software-as-a-Service core banking solution. It provides microfinance institutions access to remotely hosted core banking software operated by our highly skilled team of microfinance technology specialists. Our SaaS solution allows the microfinance institution to “rent” software on an on-demand basis, thus avoiding large upfront license fees and providing flexibility to scale up as they grow. It also substantially reduces investment in hardware infrastructure and minimizes the burden on local IT staff.
Managed Services – MicroPlanet provides a Managed Services solution for microfinance institutions that already purchased core banking software, but who still want to take advantage of our hosted services mode.
Consulting Services – In addition to our core banking service offerings, we also provide consulting services in the areas of operational and technology assessments, technology best practices, front-end technologies like mobile payments and ATMs, disaster recovery planning, large-scale program/project management, and effective management of information.
