About PulaPay

PulaPay is a Cape Town-based company building payment infrastructure for Africa. Its flagship platform is a payment orchestration and interoperability layer that connects banks, mobile money operators and payment providers across domestic and cross-border payment systems.

The company's premise is that financial systems should interoperate by default, while today many operate independently and are hard to connect. PulaPay's website covers its platform, network, solutions, infrastructure, trust and regulatory approach, and provides developer resources. Financial institutions are invited to discuss participation in the network.
