However, many of these solutions are not interoperable with each other, and even less so across borders.
“As Africa works towards building the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA), interoperability of cross-border instant payment solutions will be vital to increasing trade,” Mr Ghanney said.
He continued, “Solutions such as ours, made by Africans solving African problems, will help actualise the AfCFTA policy and ensure that its benefits extend to small-scale traders, many of whom are women.”
In an interview on the sideline of the launch, Mr Ghanney mentioned that the platform was a borderless transaction where businesses overcome geographical barriers by enjoying seamless payment transactions across Africa, America, and Europe.
“We are secured and reliable, we have competitive exchange rates, simplify the payment process, reduce administrative burdens for businesses,” Ghanney noted.
