About AzamPay
AzamPay is the sister business to AzamPesa, building payment infrastructure for companies rather than wallets for consumers: card processing, collections and disbursements with automated reconciliation, and data analytics, sold across East Africa. It also runs Sarafu, an app through which small traders take payments, build credit, track stock and manage a financial identity, which Bakhresa uses to reach the last mile of its own distribution.
