Senior industry leaders shared their insights

As society navigates the COVID-19 pandemic, digital payments continue to be a beacon of hope for economic recovery and a significant contributor towards employment across Africa. To realise its full potential, forward-thinking thought leaders across the region are collaborating and challenging the status quo by developing fast and flexible solutions for their customers.
