R150 million for South Africa’s digital ID app

South Africa is set to launch a digital ID app, MyMzansi, thanks to a R150 million government allocation, with the platform expected to provide a centralized hub for accessing various civic services, including student bursaries and vehicle licence renewals. Once fully rolled out, digital IDs are expected to be available to all South Africans by 2030, marking a significant step towards digital transformation and increased efficiency in the country's public services.
