Pelatro Plc (AIM: PTRO), the Customer Engagement Hub software specialist, is pleased to announce its first customer in the fintech space. Pelatro's mViva has been selected by Orea Money and Banque Nationale d'investissement ("BNI") in Africa to provide its Contextual Campaign Management in a SaaS model to analyse user behaviour, generate predictions using AI/ML based models and increase revenue. The SaaS contract between Orea Money and Pelatro is valued at around US$ 1.5 million for an initial period of three years i.e. about $40,000 per month with an option to extend at the end of the initial period.

 

As previously reported, Pelatro has been actively working on entering the non-telco space, engaging with various businesses with a number now having expressed interest in our product. This contract in this new customer area for us builds on our extensive existing product suite and is an important strategic step for Pelatro as well as providing a further visibility on longer term income streams
