How companies pay employees and contractors in Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa and other markets from one balance, on mobile money and bank.
The multi-country problem
A company with staff in five African countries often juggles five bank relationships, five currencies and different payment habits. Some staff prefer mobile money; others need bank transfers.
A simpler setup
- →One balance funded in USD, EUR, GBP or stablecoins.
- →One bulk file covering every country.
