Built in Africa.
For Africa.

We built Latitude 235 IT because African developers deserved better infrastructure. No more guessing which country a number belongs to or manually maintaining SWIFT code tables.


Our mission is to make
Africa's data accessible.

African fintech is moving fast. Developers building payment apps, onboarding flows, and cross-border tools need reliable data — carrier names, country codes, mobile money flags, bank identifiers. That data exists, but it's scattered, inconsistent, and expensive to maintain.

We aggregated it, structured it, and put it behind a single REST API with sub-100ms response times hosted in AWS Africa (Cape Town). One endpoint. All of Africa. So you can focus on building your product instead of maintaining data.
