NALA, a Tanzanian-born fintech startup with a growing dominance in East Africa, made a pioneering move in Africa’s fintech space by enabling its African diaspora users to make local payments directly.
This newest integration with world payment service, Apple Pay, reaffirms NALA’s ambition to enable seamless and lightning-fast payments to Africa.
NALA’s integration with Apple Pay comes seven months after the African fintech launched operations in the US with an event held in New York, attended by six members of the Tanzanian parliament.
Benjamin Fernandes, NALA’s founder and CEO, says that NALA’s moves are geared towards connecting Africa with global payment options while building a rich financial infrastructure for Africans.
