East African digital postal service MPOST has officially launched its e-P.O.Box system in Rwanda, designed to transform the postal experience for millions of Rwandan citizens. Launched in 2016, MPost is a platform that enables the conversion of mobile numbers into official virtual addresses, which allows notifications to be sent to clients whenever they get mail through their postal addresses. The startup said the expansion underscored its commitment to leveraging technology to enhance accessibility and efficiency in postal services across Africa. “The virtual platform commits to reach over five million citizens within the next three years. By integrating the local postal services and leveraging the high mobile phone penetration in Rwanda, MPOST aims to offer an inclusive solution that caters to both urban and rural populations,” the startup said.
