The acquisition of Vodafone Egypt in December last year has enabled the Vodacom Group to report a 37% growth in revenue to R35.7 billion in the quarter ended in June. Normalised and comparable revenue growth was 5.3%. | News24_Business

We now invest more than R11 billion a year into our South Africa infrastructure alone, which has resulted in industry-leading network availability during elevated levels of power outages and ultimately contributed to the 3.9% increase in service revenue in our largest market.

Revenue from new services - primarily financial and digital service - now accounts for almost one-fifth of its total revenue. Financial services remain a"clear strategic priority", increasing its revenue by 46% to surpass the R3 billion mark in a quarter for the first time. Vodacom's mobile money platforms processed $360.6 billion over the last twelve months, up 5.8%. M-Pesa now offers loans and services to merchants throughout its markets in east Africa.
