Talk360 is looking to bridge the challenge of establishing payment services as it creates a new payment platform that will integrate all available payment options across Africa.
It says this product will open up businesses to the largest pool of localized payment options in Africa.
The startup is also looking to expand its international calling operations across Africa after closing a $4 million seed funding round, led by HAVAÍC.
Talk360 co-founder and managing director for Africa Dean Hiine told TechCrunch he anticipates great growth for its payment platform, which he says will also make it easy for international merchants to sell to users in Africa too.
He added that the startup decided to build its own payment platform informed of the need to make payment and checkout easy for its users in Africa.
