We're building the payment layer legitimate African businesses can rely on — secure, developer-friendly, and reviewed one merchant at a time.
ShaafiPay is a payment gateway product owned and operated by Shaafis Enterprise. We started with a simple observation: too many payment platforms optimize for volume over trust. We wanted to build the opposite — a gateway where every merchant is reviewed, every business is legitimate, and every transaction is protected.
Today we're focused on four things: a payment gateway merchants can integrate in a day, VTU services for airtime and bill payments, virtual card issuance in Naira and Dollars, and — because we're developers too — website and app development for businesses that need more than an API.
We're currently in our early access phase. Our dashboard and bank integrations are actively being built, and approved merchants will be first to know when we go live.
Four services, one merchant relationship.
Cards, bank transfer, USSD, and mobile wallets through one API.
Airtime, data, cable TV, and electricity via our Paga partnership.
Naira and Dollar virtual cards, issued and managed via API.
Website and app development for businesses that need a build partner.
PCI DSS-aligned practices, encryption, and fraud monitoring on every transaction.
Every application is reviewed by hand before a business gets API access.
Clear docs, sane defaults, and a sandbox that behaves like production.
We tell merchants exactly where we are — including when we're not live yet.
