Ten years ago, Paystack set out with a simple goal: to help businesses in Africa get paid. Today, we serve ambitious teams in Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, with regulatory approvals for Egypt and Rwanda, representing 46% of Africa’s GDP.

Every day, thousands of businesses use Paystack's payments tool to accept payments from customers from anywhere in the world. Payments, however, are only one part of a business' financial stack.

Earlier in 2023, we announced the Paystack Service Partner Program, where digital agencies and dev shops can partner with Paystack to provide seamless payments experiences for existing clients, while growing their business with leads that we refer.

Paystack’s mission is to accelerate commerce across Africa. We operate in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, and South Africa, and we’re always in active conversation with regulators, financial institutions, and other partners to offer fast, secure, reliable payments tools to more businesses, in more countries.

We’re excited to announce that Paystack is now out of private beta, and available to all businesses in Kenya! We’re thrilled to bring our payments and business growth tools to even more ambitious businesses across Africa.

As part of Paystack’s commitment to accelerating commerce in Africa, we’re excited to announce the Paystack Service Partner Program. If you lead a digital agency or a dev shop, you can partner with Paystack to provide seamless experiences for your existing clients, while you grow your business with client leads referred by Paystack.

We’re thrilled to announce that Paystack has received a Payment Service Provider Authorisation from the Central Bank of Kenya, which permits us to provide payment services to businesses operating in Kenya!
