In conclusion, the associations highlighted the crucial role of solidarity in ensuring the sustainability of Mobile Money services in Ghana.
The temporary restriction serves as a clear message, underscoring the need for a sustainable business model that guarantees fair compensation for all Mobile Money agents.
