Cross-border payments in Africa are a complex landscape, with a mix of traditional and emerging players. While startups like Leatherback, Zazuu, and Shekel Mobility are gaining traction, established players like Western Union and MoneyGram still dominate. Local business leaders are eager for faster, cheaper, and more transparent cross-border payment options, but concerns remain around regulatory compliance and currency volatility.
