from Kaya 959 · host Gugulethu Mfuphi

New Youth Month data shows that over half of Paymenow’s earned‑wage access activity comes from South Africans under 35. Paymenow's Denise Neethling explains how young workers are using small top-ups to manage cash flow, why transport and food dominate spending, and how financial-education tools and savings features are reshaping youth financial behaviour.
