How will Beneficiaries Without a Mobile Device Access the Service?

This is an expected challenge. Our experience in the field suggests that potentially 20-30% of adult beneficiaries may lack a mobile phone (especially women). It is unknown how many of this cohort has access to a SIM. Irrespective, we consider the following potential solutions (non exhaustive):

  • Supported registrations through either community health workers or through employers

  • potential beneficiaries use/nominate a proxy (e.g., a family member, or community leader) device to register and receive notifications

  • MNO’s/others subsidise the provision of SIM’s or Hardware to beneficiaries or proxy nominees.
