The SnapScan story

[Daniel Puchert]

The university lecturer who quit his job and built one of South Africa's biggest payment platforms

Snapscan co-founder Kobus Ehlers quit his job as a university lecturer to go into big data. However, after that didn't work out, he and his team created one of the biggest payment platforms in the country.

Ehlers attended Paarl Boys High School, matriculating as head boy in 2003, before enrolling at Stellenbosch University the following year.

Can we please get more on this part of the story:

Ehlers said it was a blur from this point onwards, as the team went from fighting with organised crime groups over credit card fraud to moving offices three times in six months.
