Every year, billions of euros and CFA francs are transferred between Europe and Africa to fund education and student life. Yet, the opacity of traditional transfers and the fungibility of cash lead to massive leakage: exorbitant fees, diverted funds, unpaid invoices for institutions, and heavy administrative burdens for companies.

It is time to restore financial trust.

EDUFREM is the FinTech securing the financing of all educational services through our core innovation: the Educational Credit.
Much more than a school payment platform, EDUFREM acts as an ecosystem of trust. We convert funds into a 100% purpose-bound digital payment voucher. We guarantee that the money lands exclusively with verified educational providers (schools, universities, student housing, tutoring, equipment). Zero diverted funds, zero out-of-pocket expenses.

Our two main areas of impact:

For Companies (HR & Employee Benefits): We simplify education-related corporate benefits. Whether it is scholarships, back-to-school bonuses, tutoring, or relocation assistance, EDUFREM pays providers directly. Companies get irrefutable proof of use and a powerful employer branding tool, with absolutely no expense reports to manage.

For Families & International Students: We secure end-to-end student life financing. From Europe to Africa (Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Cameroon) or vice versa, families can fund their children's tuition, housing, and educational needs with total transparency, bypassing costly middlemen.

Our Ecosystem:
Backed by the French government (Start-up & Go grant), La French Tech, and top-tier incubators (Novacité, Centre d'Entrepreneuriat Lyon St-Étienne), EDUFREM relies on a transnational team deeply rooted in both European and African realities.

Our mission: to transform educational support into a measurable, comprehensive, and guaranteed investment.
