Vodafone Fiji’s M-PAiSA and Saver.Global have joined forces to enhance financial education for over 700,000 Fijians through the SaverLearning platform. This initiative targets improving both financial and digital literacy, providing essential knowledge and tools for individuals to navigate the often-complex digital financial environment securely.

Shailendra Prasad, Vodafone Fiji’s head of eCommerce, expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, highlighting its potential to provide consumers with quality educational resources. “Empowering Fijians to use digital financial services effectively benefits not only individuals but also communities,” he stated. The collaboration positions the M-PAiSA mobile wallet as a gateway to a variety of accessible and secure financial products in the region.

Saver.Global’s platform is set to offer a series of essential courses on topics such as budgeting, remittances, banking, and cybersecurity. In early 2025, one of the standout courses titled “Financial Cybersecurity” will debut, teaching users how to navigate the digital financial ecosystem securely while safeguarding their personal information. Following this, a “Safe Surfing” course will educate users on avoiding online scams and ensuring safe digital transactions.

Jon Capal, the founder of Saver.Global, welcomed the chance to reach so many Fijians, emphasizing the partnership’s broader potential to extend its impact across the Pacific region. This initiative follows a growing trend in Fiji’s financial landscape, with other institutions, including Westpac, also launching similar programs to improve financial literacy within the community.

As Fiji gears up for a future where digital financial literacy is vital, the collaboration between Vodafone Fiji and Saver.Global represents a hopeful step toward fostering a financially informed and empowered society. The shared commitment to enhancing financial education underscores a positive trajectory for sustainable economic growth across the region.

This partnership reflects an important societal shift towards improved financial literacy, which is expected to provide individuals and communities with the skills necessary to thrive in the digital economy.
