Our story (so far)

Team

Our vision is to deliver delightful experiences for merchants and users, and be the payments partner of choice on the African continent. In everything we do, we strive to make it as easy as possible for merchants to focus on their business, while we take care of their payment needs. We work with the biggest enterprise businesses and the side-hustle next door, across every sector of the economy. We pride ourselves on delivering a world-class payments service with a seamless and secure checkout, enterprise-grade security and personalised multi-channel support to every business we partner with. We integrate easily with leading e-commerce platforms like WooCommerce, Wix, Shopify, Magento and Prestashop, and our modern API allows for custom integrations. We currently enable both enterprise and SME ecommerce in Kenya with rapid expansion to more countries on the continent planned.

Paysasa keeps customers and users at the centre of everything we do, allowing merchants to focus on what they do best while we take care of their payment needs. Over the years we’ve taken immense satisfaction from seeing seminal brands scale effectivelyusing our various payment gateway solutions.

With continuous learning and development central to what we do at Paysasa, we’re also proud to have pioneered fintech firsts for South Africa - like subscription models, one-click payments, mobile integration, and gig-economypayment solutions.

We also believe in the importance of small and medium-sized enterprises and fully integrate with leading e-commerce platforms like WooCommerce, Shopify, Wix, Magento and Xduka. Our modern API also allows for custom integrations. We currently work with businesses in Kenya, Uganda and Tanania, and we are rapidly expanding our presence to other countries across the continent.

Paysasa seamlessly processes over 20 million requests a month for our merchants. And although online shoppers may not realise they’re using one of our products, we’re immensely proud of the journey we’re helping them walk as they get started, or start scaling up.
