Brian Wathome on Building Charge On The Go & a 60,000 - User Game Platform

In this episode, Barrack sits down with Brian Wathome, the founder of Charge On The Go and Games On The Go to share how he built two thriving tech businesses from scratch. From renting power banks at nightlife venues and airports to launching a skill-based gaming platform on the M-PESA Mini App, he reveals how networks, timing, and innovative thinking unlocked these opportunities. Learn how Charge On The Go scaled across multiple locations, secured JKIA after a year-long pitching process, and how Games On The Go reached 60,000 users with zero marketing, saving an estimated KES 156 million in acquisition costs. Bootstrapped with just KES 1M, the digital platform now engages both kids and families, creating positive screen time through multiplayer games and subscriptions. He also shares his strategy for scaling across Kenya, Rwanda, and beyond, and how continuous innovation and understanding the market have been key to the success of both businesses.Subscribe to our newsletter: https://shorturl.at/o2jpCHelp Shape the Future of Financially Incorrect – Take Less Than 5 Mins: https://shorturl.at/3iiJZWant to Be Featured on Financially Incorrect?
