PayRetailers expands its presence in Africa, extending its payment solutions to eight additional countries, boosting financial inclusion and supporting cross-border merchants in emerging markets.
PayRetailers, a leading payment processor in Latin America, has announced its expansion into Africa, now covering 12 countries. This strategic move offers a unified, simplified payment solution for cross-border merchants looking to grow in Africa’s emerging markets.
PayRetailers offers businesses a scalable and user-friendly payment experience, enabling access to popular local payment methods like MPESA, Airtel, and MTN. The new markets included in this expansion are Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Kenya, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Senegal, South Africa, and Nigeria. This follows recent launches in Rwanda, Zambia, Uganda, and Tanzania, just three months ago.
This expansion strengthens PayRetailers’ ability to open new growth opportunities for clients in Africa. Existing clients benefit from seamless access to these markets without any additional integration effort, as PayRetailers manages everything through its existing API infrastructure.
With many populations in Africa still underbanked, PayRetailers supports businesses in accelerating financial inclusion by providing easier access to payment solutions. As the continent becomes more mobile and connected, global businesses are increasingly focused on tapping into Africa’s growth potential.
PayRetailers’ African expansion is a significant step in its broader growth strategy, with plans to further extend its services into additional African countries and Europe. Building on its expertise in Latin America, PayRetailers is well-positioned to meet the unique needs of African consumers and businesses.
Jonathan Vintner, Global Head of Sales at PayRetailers, said:
“Expanding into eight new markets marks a significant milestone for PayRetailers as we continue our mission to bring tailored payment solutions to diverse regions. Africa is a vibrant and varied continent, with payment preferences that differ from region to region. For example, our launch in Kenya enables merchants to access M-Pesa, the country’s leading mobile money provider, while in South Africa, we’re offering a blend of card and cash solutions to meet local demands. All of this is seamlessly integrated into our existing API, allowing merchants to access the top payment methods across Latin America and now Africa through a single connection—with more countries on the horizon”.
