A market that counts
Over 1 billion people globally live in informal homes that the financial system cannot see. DigiDeeds is changing that, starting in South Africa and scaling across Africa and the world.
A DigiDeed serves as proof of address and a credit profile that banks, credit bureaus, insurers, providers, and government can use. For an owner, it's also a certificate of ownership for the home, not the land. That opens credit, services, and opportunities members have long been excluded from.
Our market
DigiDeeds offers institutional-grade alternative data that turns informal tenure into collateralised assets and tradable, generational wealth.

Our diverse revenue opportunities
A member starts a relationship with their home, their community, and the financial system. Revenue can follow at every stage of it.
Institutions, including government, want this market. But the costs of visibility, verification, and risk assessment block them from capturing it. DigiDeeds is built to remove that block.
Banks and lenders
Thin-file applicants fail FICA and KYC checks, with no proof of address, no credit history, and no reliable PD or LGD estimates.
We turn them into underwritable, performing loan profiles.
Insurers
Informal structures cannot be underwritten: no verified boundaries, ownership, or fraud signals.
We turn them into risk-rated, actuarially assessable policy assets.
Service providers
No proof of address means PAYG assets get deployed to unverified addresses, driving high customer acquisition costs and repossession losses.
We deliver verified, reachable, recurring subscribers.
Municipalities
Deed backlogs and unmapped communities block service delivery and rates collection.
We deliver structured spatial data and verified identity hubs.
National digital ID
No one issues digital proof of address for wallets and payment rails.
DigiDeeds can.
Real estate and proptech
Township transactions happen off-grid, cash and verbal, with high dispute risk.
We deliver structured, listable, verified inventory.
Our future use cases
The DigiDeeds infrastructure is not limited to residential property. It can as easily serve commodity value chains that need proof of land-use rights.
The same graph database, community verification model, and DigiDeeds Stability Indicator can underpin trust and access across the informal economy, in Africa and beyond.
