Building the Infrastructure for Africa's Merchants.
Africa has millions of entrepreneurs and businesses, but operating across the continent remains fragmented. PayOsOne is building the technology and financial infrastructure that helps merchants operate, get paid, access financial services, reach customers and distribute products and services — across Africa.
More Than Payments. Infrastructure for Commerce.
PayOsOne is an African technology and financial infrastructure company focused on empowering merchants.
We believe the next generation of African commerce will be built around connected merchants — businesses that can accept payments, access financial services, serve customers, distribute products and participate in digital commerce from one connected ecosystem.
Our goal is simple: make it easier for African businesses to operate and grow.
One Africa. Connected Commerce.
We don't see Africa as a collection of isolated markets. We see one continent with many countries, currencies, languages and economies — increasingly connected by technology.
Our vision is to build a Pan-African merchant network where a business can operate across markets without rebuilding its technology and financial infrastructure every time it enters a new country.
From Lagos to Accra.
From Nairobi to Johannesburg.
From Cairo to Kigali.
One connected African commerce ecosystem.
Empowering the African Merchant.
Our mission is to provide African merchants with the technology, financial infrastructure and distribution capabilities they need to build, operate and scale. We want to make the merchant:
More Connected
Linking merchants to customers, services and markets.
More Productive
Tools that streamline daily operations.
More Financially Enabled
Access to payments and financial services.
More Profitable
New revenue streams and distribution income.
The Infrastructure Behind the Merchant.
Merchant Technology
Tools that help merchants manage and grow their businesses.
Financial Infrastructure
Connecting merchants to payment capabilities and relevant financial services.
Last-Mile Distribution
Turn merchants into trusted local distribution points.
Pan-African Commerce
Infrastructure that allows merchants and consumers to participate in commerce across African markets.
We Turn Merchants Into Distribution Infrastructure.
Africa's challenge is not simply creating products. It is getting those products and services to the customer.
Millions of customers live and work around local merchants — shops, pharmacies, restaurants, salons, hotels, agents and service businesses. PayOsOne can transform these merchants into last-mile distribution points for products and services.
The provider gains distribution.
Reach customers through existing local merchants.
The merchant gains another revenue stream.
Earn from distributing products and services.
The customer gets convenient access.
Services available where they already live and shop.
PayOsOne powers the infrastructure connecting all three.
From Local Merchant to Community Distribution Hub.
Imagine a merchant serving hundreds of customers within their community. Through PayOsOne, that merchant can become a distribution point for multiple products and services. The merchant can potentially:
We don't just digitise the merchant.
We activate the merchant.
ROAM — Africa's Financial Passport.
The merchant ecosystem becomes even more powerful when consumers can move seamlessly between African markets. ROAM is PayOsOne's consumer-facing financial passport concept designed to help Africans move through the continent's financial and commerce ecosystem.
A consumer should be able to travel from Nigeria to Ghana, Kenya or another African market and continue accessing relevant financial and payment services without starting from zero.
PayOsOne connects the merchant.
ROAM connects the consumer.
Together, they create a connected African commerce ecosystem.
