Cards, mobile money and banks
Prioritise cards, mobile wallets, account transfers and cash-linked methods using real customer behaviour in each target market.
03
Currencies and settlement
Define local pricing, FX, settlement currency, reserves, banking location, payout timing and repatriation constraints.
04
Pay-ins, refunds and payouts

Questions
What businesses usually ask
Can one PSP cover every African country?
Usually not. Regional providers can simplify part of the rollout, while important countries or methods may require specialist routes.
Is mobile money required in Africa?
It is important in several markets but not universally. Method priority must follow the country, customer segment and transaction flow.
Can settlement occur outside the customer country?
Potentially, depending on regulation, provider structure, currencies and banking. Settlement and FX must be confirmed for each route.
Can OfferPSP match payout providers as well as pay-ins?
Where suitable coverage exists, yes. Beneficiaries, currencies, limits, timing and failure handling are documented separately from collection.
