Public mass transit operator TRANSCO has begun modernizing its ticketing system, partnering with local technology firm Pimacle and Equity BCDC Bank to digitize fare collection.
Transport Minister Jean-Pierre Bemba met with Transco Director General Sylvestre Bilambo, Equity BCDC CEO Willy Mulumba Kabadi, and Pimacle representatives on October 16, 2025, to review the project’s progress.
The initiative aims to improve urban mobility in Kinshasa while strengthening Transco’s financial management. After testing several digital solutions, Pimacle SARL’s proposal was selected from competing bids.
Founded in 2017, Pimacle specializes in technology services, electronic security, GPS/GPRS systems, and transport logistics. The company serves as a local partner providing technical expertise for digital implementation.
Equity BCDC CEO Willy Mulumba Kabadi praised the ministry’s vision, emphasizing that his bank will support Transco in implementing solutions that advance financial inclusion.
