In an economy traditionally driven by cash, digital transformation once felt out of reach for many Gambian businesses. But today, thanks to platforms like ModemPay, those boundaries are rapidly dissolving, and entrepreneurs are turning bold ideas into functional, profitable realities.

GamShows, one of The Gambia’s emerging entertainment platforms, recently became the first brand to sell event tickets online using local mobile wallets. Behind this innovation is Sey Solutions, the tech company that built and deployed GamShows’ digital ticketing platform, with ModemPay as the payment engine powering it all.

Together, Sey Solutions and ModemPay enabled a first-of-its-kind experience: Gambians paying for tickets online using Wave, QMoney, and Afrimoney, no international cards, no extra fees, just instant local convenience.

But GamShows is only part of the bigger story.
