Introduction

In recent years, the digital payment landscape in Kenya has become increasingly fragmented, creating unique challenges for businesses and consumers alike. The growth of different payment systems — including mobile money platforms like M-Pesa and Airtel Money, card payments, bank transfers, and more — each operating in their silos, has made it difficult for businesses to offer a unified payment experience to their customers. This is where Savannah Technologies steps in.

The Fragmentation Challenge

Fragmentation in Kenya’s payments landscape is a double-edged sword. While it illustrates the vibrant dynamism and innovation in the country’s digital payments sphere, it also complicates things for businesses. Having to deal with multiple payment platforms can increase operational complexity, drive up costs, and lead to a less-than-optimal customer experience due to the lack of a seamless, unified payment platform.

The Savannah Solution

Savannah Technologies offers an all-in-one payment gateway that integrates all major payment methods in Kenya and beyond. This unified approach allows businesses to accept payments from a variety of sources — be it M-Pesa, Airtel Money, bank transfers, Visa, MasterCard, or international methods like American Express, JCB, and UnionPay — all through a single, simple-to-use platform.

How Savannah Helps
