Rural users struggle with banking apps that require constant internet or lack local language support. A simplified app with offline functionality and multi-language support could fill this gap. Banks or local governments might fund this as a CSR initiative. Start with basic features like balance checks and transfers. The biggest risk is regulatory hurdles in different regions.
