Who are we

An innovative savings and lending cooperative

Phuthalichaba operates independently, with a commitment to fostering:

  • a savings culture,
  • financial accessibility,
  • cutting-edge banking service, and
  • investments in innovative start-ups.

The cooperative will actively support and invest in emerging businesses. Membership is open to all Lesotho citizens worldwide, requiring only a valid identification document (ID or passport) and an active Lesotho bank account.

We embrace a paperless approach and stay attuned to evolving technology, conducting all transactions electronically through our partner banks. This keeps transaction records securely archived and traceable, maintaining a high level of accountability, and lets members take part wherever they live, fostering financial inclusion for all citizens of Lesotho.

Message from the founder

Let us create generational wealth together

Mr Tebello Tjapela, founder
“It is not a secret that most of us live from month to month when it comes to our use of money. Should we have a single month without an income, then, everything turns upside down. What if we start learning to save the little we have? Join us in that vision and let us together create generational wealth for ourselves and change Lesotho’s financial industry through Phuthalichaba.”
Mr Tebello Tjapela, Founder and CEO
