A few weeks ago, our COO Aka Yannick DE GONZAGUE and our Regional manager East Africa Andrew Njega, participated in Seamless Africa, an extraordinary platform for meeting several players in the fintech industries, in Johannesburg. 🔍 Key lessons shared by the COO on cross-border payments in Africa 1️⃣ Interoperability: Solutions must bridge platforms across regions. Strengthening API integrations and forming regional partnerships is crucial. 2️⃣ Security & Compliance: With stricter regulatory demands, automated compliance is key to ensuring secure, multi-territory operations. 3️⃣ Real-Time Payments: Customers now expect instant transfers between countries. Speed is a differentiator, and Clapay’s rapid disbursement capabilities set us apart. 4️⃣ Digital & Mobile Focus: Mobile penetration is reshaping finance. Solutions tailored for seamless mobile use will capture less-banked markets where mobile reigns. 5️⃣ Strategic Partnerships: Success in cross-border payments demands strong partnerships with banks, fintechs, and mobile operators. 6️⃣ SME Financing: Facilitating cross-border trade means easing SME access to finance. We’re exploring solutions that enhance our support for small businesses. 7️⃣ Blockchain Potential: Blockchain is a game-changer in cross-border payments, offering speed and cost-efficiency. At Clapay, we’re excited to leverage these insights to strengthen our position in Africa’s cross-border payments landscape. #Seamless Johannesburg was a reminder of the incredible growth potential here!
