How FlowAfric Empowers Merchants
Discover how FlowAfric is helping African merchants grow their businesses with low-cost payment processing and comprehensive financial tools.

Transforming African Commerce
Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) form the backbone of African economies, yet many struggle with expensive payment processing, limited access to capital, and complex financial management. FlowAfric is changing this narrative by providing merchants with powerful, affordable tools to grow their businesses.
The Merchant Challenge
African merchants face unique challenges:
- High payment processing fees (often 3-5% per transaction)
- Limited payment options for customers
- Cash-heavy economies creating security risks
- Difficulty accessing business loans and credit
- Complex financial record-keeping
