Backed by Institut Français, the Goethe Institut, the Jack Ma Foundation, and the Alibaba Foundation, Publiseer is a digital platform that helps independent and underserved African writers, musicians, filmmakers, and video game developers, typically those from low-income and disadvantaged communities, to earn above the minimum wage and live above the poverty line from the sales of their creative works. 

Publiseer achieves this by helping them distribute, protect, promote, and monetize their creative works worldwide, at no charge, with just a single click, and the digital platform shares in the revenue it generates for these creators, which in turn goes back into helping more creators in Africa.

Every day, Publiseer discovers extraordinary local African creators and gives them a platform to focus on doing what they love doing the most and what they know how to do best, which is to create. At the same time, Publiseer handles the tedious but important business of transforming their creativity into wealth for them. When Publiseer accepts a creator on its platform, Publiseer fine-tunes their creative works to industry standard, so that the creator stands a chance to compete on a global scale. 

Then Publiseer distributes it to its over 400 well-established partner stores so that the creator is easily discovered. Publiseer also protect this content from illegal distribution and intellectual property theft, so the creator truly owns the content. The creators can monitor their sales performance on Publiseer's centralized dashboard, and receive their royalties via African-tailored payment methods, such as into a local bank account or through a mobile money wallet.

The digital platform is working towards helping at least 2 million African creatives earn above the minimum wage and live above the poverty line from the sales of their creative works, by 2030. Publiseer has been recognized by Ernst & Young as one of the 100 “most meaningful businesses in the world”.
