Mogo prides itself on its fast service and open communication, which fosters long-term relationships with its customers, and as a result, it has attracted 821 active clients in Moldova already.

“We have had a very long-standing and fruitful cooperation with Mintos at the Mogo Group level so having also Mogo Moldova on the marketplace is a logical step.
