Paystack will be returning to DevConf 2023 as Platinum Sponsors in Cape Town and Pretoria! Paystack is a Nigerian-based online payment platform that allows businesses to accept payments from customers through various channels such as debit cards, bank transfers, and mobile money.
It was founded in 2015 by Shola Akinlade and Ezra Olubi and has since become one of the leading payment gateways in Nigeria, processing millions of transactions worth billions of naira every month.
Paystack’s mission is to help African businesses accept payments from anyone, anywhere in the world. The platform is known for its user-friendly interface, excellent customer support, and innovative features such as its payment links, which allow businesses to receive payments without needing a website or online store.
In 2020, Paystack was acquired by Stripe, a leading global online payment platform. The acquisition is expected to strengthen Stripe’s presence in Africa and provide Paystack with the resources and expertise needed to expand its services across the continent.
