A few days ago, we released our 2025 Impact Report — a milestone that captures not just numbers, but the experiences, strategy, and real human progress behind them. From the very beginning, our journey has been grounded in fieldwork, listening to communities, and iterating based on what works. The result, A “Flywheel of Impact”, a term we coined ourselves. Our model is simple but powerful: Connect → Digitalize → Transform. And it translates into volumes. 👥 28,000+ paying customers 📱 780,000+ unique users of our digital services 💸 7,300+ accessed financial services 🌱 400+ jobs and income opportunities created ⚙️ 7 key services deployed in our rural networks But the numbers only tell part of the story. Take Ahouangan, a motorcycle taxi driver from Bohicon, who used our BNPL marketplace to buy a better bike and grew his profit from 1,500 FCFA to 6,000 FCFA daily. Or Djegbate, a student who used to walk 1.5km for copies and now prints school documents in his own village — thanks to our collaboration with Brother to bring printing solutions to 20 rural communities. They’re not the only ones. All together, they represent everyday proof of why we exist. Each device installed, service launched, or contract signed is a dot connected toward something bigger — a family helped, a business started, a future unlocked. This progress is only possible thanks to our tireless teams in Benin, Senegal, and Zambia, our trusted partners, and the communities who continue to believe in our mission. Our 2025 Impact Report includes a year-in-brief, our theory of change, and a selection of powerful testimonials from the communities we serve. We invite you to explore the full report and stay tuned. As we speak, the next chapter is already being written. More stories, more progress, and more impact are on the way. Let us know your thoughts. 🔗 Report Link: https://dotsfor.com/pdf/dotsfor_impactreport2025_EN.pdf The flywheel is turning, stronger than ever, connecting all “dots”.

At Dots for, every service we offer is designed with one goal in mind: to create real impact in the lives of people in rural Africa. Our Marketplace service is a beautiful example of that mission in action. In many village communities, dreams of starting a business or expanding an existing one often remain on hold due to a lack of access to essential tools and machinery. Through our growing network of trusted partners and a deep understanding of local needs, Dots for connects the dots—bringing these vital resources right to where they’re needed most. Whether it is a new sewing machine, a milling tool, or a piece of farming equipment, these items are the beginning of new income streams, a revived sense of purpose, and, most visibly, smiles of hope and joy. We’re proud to be the bridge between aspiration and opportunity. And as more people join our network, the smiles keep multiplying within communities across rural Africa. We celebrate many of the lives touched, businesses started, and futures transformed, one community after another.

Behind every smooth customer experience in rural communities, there’s a dedicated team working tirelessly to ensure that everything runs just right. For us at Dots for, service quality is the result of consistent maintenance, rigorous testing, and deep commitment from our field teams. From solar panels and charging stations to connectivity points and network devices, each component of our infrastructure is cared for with precision. Whether it’s checking power outputs, securing stable installations, or running routine diagnostics, our team members are always in motion. They ensure that communities continue to enjoy reliable, high-performing services—without interruption and from the comfort of their villages. More importantly, this work is done with joy, purpose, and pride. Our team understands the stakes. Every successful service check means that children and adults alike can access educational content on a smartphone. It means local entrepreneurs can start or grow their businesses, invest in better tools, and explore markets far beyond their village. It means more people—young and old, women and men—can tap into new opportunities, stay informed, and stay connected to a broader world. This level of dedication is what powers our mission: removing the barriers that hold rural communities back and unlocking new opportunities across the continent. To our teams on the ground—thank you for keeping every dot connected, every service alive, and every community empowered. 💪🌍
