Konnect Ghana, a data-centric tech start-up based in Accra, has launched its Konnect mobile app after months of anticipation.
It offers a one-stop source for all information on enjoying and exploring Ghana, with over 400 carefully curated bars, restaurants, lounges, events, tour packages, and more within Accra and the immediate surrounding areas.
It allows users to set specific search parameters to find their ideal experiences and provides real-time reviews, price ranges, ratings, menus, and contact details.
The app also includes a personalization option that allows users to save their favourite places and collect rewards and discounts, as well as geotags that link directly to Google Maps.
According to Henry Kumi, Founder and Head Developer of Konnect GH, "the app not only lets you know what's going on in the streets of Accra at any particular time but allows you to search for your ideal experience.
"You can really get specific - for instance, if you are looking for a place to have African food for lunch with outdoor seating and free WiFi, you can find that with the app."
In addition to helping tourists and locals connect with exciting attractions, the app also offers discounts at various restaurants and tours.
Meanwhile, Zubaidah Abdel-Rahman, another co-founder of Konnect GH, highlighted the chat function as a favourite feature, stating that it "allows us to foster conversations around establishments and events."
The team behind Konnect GH includes foodie and travel influencer Zubaidah Abdel-Rahman, and Henry Kumi, Co-Founder and Brand & Partnership Lead.
The Konnect app is available for download on Android and iOS app stores under the name Konnect - Ghana Food & Events.
Businesses interested in being featured on the app can contact the Konnect team at their website.
As Ghana expects over 200,000 tourists during the festive season, Konnect GH aims to help connect visitors to the many interesting and exciting attractions that the country has to offer.
