Pesapal, the popular mobile money transaction app has made a move to integrate Visa into its payment systems. The move will see Visa become one of the options for online and mobile money payment for customers. Previously Visa used the mVisa for mobile money transactions. Their attachment to Pesapal gives the card company more exposure to their client base with twenty-one thousand businesses available, to use Visa now as a payment channel.

This will increase safety for customers who want to use cashless means of payment. It is flexible and convenient for both customers and businesses. The same integration will be implemented on the firm’s point of sale solution, Pesapal Sabi.
