Built by an immigrant
Founded by someone who moved from Zambia to South Africa to Germany to America. We know this journey personally.
Built by someone who has been through it
“I was born in Zambia and I have spent my life moving. I lived in South Africa. Then Germany. Now the United States. In between I traveled through countries across Africa, across Asia, and across Europe.
Each country I lived in or visited, I had to learn a new financial system from scratch. America was the most different of all. Here, everything depends on something called credit — and nobody explains it to people who just arrived.
I spent years learning how it works. And I realized the problem was never the system itself. The problem was that nobody was explaining it simply.
That is why I built Imcredify. To give every immigrant the clear, plain-language credit guide that nobody gave me.”
— Johnstone, Founder of Imcredify
