The coalition will streamline transfers for Access Africa customers, decrease traction and render it inexpensive to send cross-border payments for personal or business motives.

This pursues to enlarge Access Bank’s instant outbound remittance to potentially 400 million mobile wallets and over 130 links in more than 35 African nations, giving rise to it simpler for people and businesses to receive real-time payments from Nigeria.

Critically this propels us closer towards being ‘Africa’s gateway to the world’ and democratizing access to payments through affordable, safe, and reliable platforms.”
