Interswitch Limited and Multipay Congo have joined forces to enhance the payments ecosystem in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The partnership, which is a response to the rapidly evolving and expanding demands of the Democratic Republic of the Congo market, will enable Multipay Congo to leverage Interswitch’s technology and expertise to deliver innovative and secure digital payment solutions to the Congolese market, supporting financial inclusion, driving digital transformation, and boosting economic growth in the country.
Multipay Congo is a pioneer financial technology company that launched the first local interbank payment service in the DRC in 2015, called “Multipay”, in collaboration with four major banks, namely: the BCDC (Banque Commerciale du Congo), Equity Bank Congo, FirstBank DRC, and Rawbank. The first two banks have since merged to become the Equity BCDC.
