UBA taps Cellulant in Africa expansion plans

United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, Africa’s global bank, and Cellulant, a leading Pan-African Payments Company, have announced a partnership that will expand payment services for merchants and consumers in 19 important African nations where UBA operates.

Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Côte d’Ivoire, Zambia, Tanzania, Uganda, Republic of Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Chad, Congo, DRC, Gabon, Guinea, Liberia, Mozambique, Sierra Leone, and Senegal are among these countries.

Cellulant’s Payment Gateway, Tingg, is available to a large number of merchants and consumers in each of these areas thanks to this network, which is one of the major tools in bringing Africa’s fragmented payments industry together.

Cellulant now processes over US$10 billion in gross value payments across the shared markets, and this alliance has the potential to considerably increase those numbers.
