African Merchants Can Now Receive Payments on PayPal

Before now, it is difficult for Africa businesses to receive payment via PayPal, but it appears the shackles have been broken as Flutterwave partners with PayPal to allow African merchants to accept payment via its platform.


Flutterwave today is announcing a collaboration with PayPal to allow PayPal customers globally to pay African merchants through its ‘Pay with PayPal’ feature.

Via this partnership, African businesses can connect with the more than 377 million PayPal accounts globally and overcome the challenges presented by the highly fragmented and complex payment and banking infrastructure on the continent.

According to a statement by Flutterwave, the integration with PayPal is live and operational across 50 African countries and worldwide.

That means small business owners and freelancers who use Flutterwave in places like Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, Morocco, Mauritius, Malawi, Mozambique & Senegal will be able to accept payments from PayPal users worldwide.

The PayPal integration, in particular, opens African SMEs and freelancers up to more international demand.
