The Digital Rails for Equitable Aid Delivery
ESTHER delivers aid to people faster, safer, and on their terms, through a platform built for last-mile equity.
ESTHER is a fintech infrastructure platform that powers transparent, inclusive delivery of cash and voucher assistance. We connect governments, NGOs and payment providers to deliver aid that is:
Flexible
Recipients choose how they receive funds - mobile money, bank, card or wallet
Interoperable
Unified rails across banks, NGOs, processors and ID systems
Secure & Transparent
Real-time tracking, anti-fraud and impact visibility
Care Driven
Cash meets care - casework and community support built in
$250B
Global Aid Distributed
$250B in global aid is distributed annually — but it’s fragmented, inefficient, and often misses the people who need it most.
1.4B
Unbanked People
Over 1.4 billion people remain unbanked. Existing systems are siloed, slow, and unequal — especially for women and marginalized communities.
We’re not just building fintech. We’re building the digital public infrastructure for inclusive aid and social protection.
We prioritize inclusion—designing financial systems that empower marginalized and underserved communities.
Crisis-Affected Populations
ESTHER enables rapid, secure cash and voucher distribution during humanitarian emergencies—ensuring aid reaches displaced families, refugees, and disaster survivors with speed, dignity, and choice.
Rural Communities
Our platform bridges digital and financial access gaps by integrating with local providers, enabling remote populations to receive aid without needing a bank branch or internet access.
Women and Girls
We prioritize gender-intentional design so that women can safely access, control, and benefit from financial support—reducing economic exclusion and increasing resilience.
Redefining how the world delivers aid — one recipient at a time.
Governments Modernizing Safety Nets
ESTHER powers the infrastructure behind modern social protection systems—helping governments deliver benefits transparently, track impact, and integrate services at scale.
NGOs Delivering Last-Mile Support
We give frontline organizations the tools to disburse funds efficiently, monitor usage, and connect recipients to social services—without the burden of building their own tech stack.
We align our mission with proven global development priorities to drive equitable, scalable change. Each of our values reflects a commitment to enabling opportunity, resilience, and dignity.
Inclusive Finance
We expand access to essential financial tools to the unbanked so that no one is left behind in crisis or recovery.
Local Empowerment
We elevate regional actors and institutions, building capacity where it matters for long-term resilience.
Equity First
We prioritize solutions that empower women and girls as central agents of change and economic stability.
Care at the core
We believe that financial access alone is not enough without the networks of support that help people thrive.
