M-Pesa for Global Merchants Unlocking Africa with Pay by M-Pesa

What is Pay by M-Pesa?

Pay by M-Pesa is a service for businesses that makes it simple to accept payments from users of Africa’s leading local payment method.

M-Pesa provides financial services to millions of people across sub-Saharan Africa. Throughout the region, it’s the preferred way to make payments for both the banked and unbanked, due its safety and unmatched convenience. 

Last year, we processed 12.2bn transactions across our 41.5 million active customers.

Through our Open API platform, global merchants can offer M-Pesa as a payment method on their e-commerce checkouts. With a single integration, merchants can unlock over 40m additional customers. In order to make accepting Pay by M-Pesa even simpler, we are partnered with a network of global Payment Service Providers who are connected into our Open API platform. Alternatively, merchants can choose to integrate with us directly.
