JumiaPay: Africa's Next Favorite Payment App
JumiaPay is a regional leader in integrated digital payment solutions applications in Africa and surrounding countries. Since it also functions as an easy-to-use digital wallet with fraud detection technology, JumiaPay is the complete payment solution for e-commerce businesses and consumers alike.
Challenge
To continue to scale and expand into new regions, JumiaPay needed to update its app backend to seamlessly connect with the new payment systems providers on the market while maintaining the quality of existing integrations.
Plus, the application integrations needed to be thoroughly analyzed, enhanced, and expanded into new e-commerce platform plugins while interfacing with an existing technical team.
This made choosing a qualified team of fintech app developers for the project very difficult.
Solution
Blink22 deployed two teams to manage the core payment application services and onboard all the new ones in the pipeline.
These teams jumped into the project by owning all services from the analysis phase, including scoping, implementing, and testing the service, to supporting and monitoring after deployment.
Outcome
JumiaPay's fintech application was successfully integrated with multiple payment service providers in different African countries (Egypt, Nigeria, Algeria, Ivory Coast, and Kenya).
It was also successfully integrated as a payment plugin on some of the most popular e-commerce systems, including Shopify and Prestashop.
Now, JumiaPay is well on its way to being one of the most popular, secure, and easiest-to-use payment apps in the African region.
