Problem & Solution
Hold-Until-Confirm — enterprise-grade booking for the African aviation market
The Problem
African corporate travel is broken by fragmented airline systems, multi-currency settlement complexity, mobile-money payment preferences, and the absence of approval-based booking workflows. Existing OTAs are consumer-grade; global TMCs ignore African payment rails and local content.
Our Solution
A cloud-native booking platform with deep GDS integration (Amadeus, Sabre, Travelport) and a proprietary Hold-Until-Confirm model that lets corporates reserve seats for 30 minutes without immediate payment, enabling client approval workflows. Multi-gateway payments (cards, mobile money, USSD, bank transfer) cover the full African payment landscape.

Traction & Proof Points
- Live GDS integration with 3 providers · 40+ airlines · 200+ airports
- Sub-50ms API latency at 10,000+ requests/second capacity
- PCI DSS Level 1 · SOC 2 Type II · ISO 27001 compliance achieved
Moat & Exit Strategy
Defensible Moat
First-mover Hold-Until-Confirm workflow tailored to African corporate approval cycles, combined with the only platform offering all three major GDS systems plus a full African mobile-money payment stack in one API. Compliance certifications (PCI DSS L1, SOC 2 II, ISO 27001) are a 12–18-month catch-up cost for new entrants.
Exit Path
Strategic acquisition by a global TMC (Navan, CWT, Amex GBT) or a regional aviation/fintech holding seeking African enterprise rails, with a Series B-to-IPO path on a 5–7 year horizon.
Key Risks
- GDS commercial-terms renegotiation risk affecting unit economics
- FX volatility across 10+ African currencies
- Regulatory fragmentation across 54 jurisdictions for cross-border ticketing
