\tSafaricom revealed a tie-up with global transaction giant Visa on developing digital payment services for the operator’s m-Pesa platform and expanding e-commerce options for merchants.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the companies said the move would \u201cseek to eliminate barriers to global commerce and offer an expanded set of mobile e-commerce capabilities to merchants and consumers by enabling secure and convenient cashless payment solutions\u201d.<\/p>\n

The deal is subject to regulatory approval and is said to cover products aimed at the operator\u2019s 24 million m-Pesa customers, 173,000 merchants in Kenya and more than 61 million merchant locations across Visa\u2019s global network.<\/p>\n

Safaricom CEO Peter Ndegwa pointed to potential opportunities for its customers around global e-commerce, though further detail on the scope of the products set to be developed was not disclosed.<\/p>\n

Visa East Africa VP Corine Mbiaketcha added: \u201cWe envision that our combined efforts in enabling seamless and interoperable financial services and products will eventually drive much desired financial inclusion in our communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The move comes less than a month [1] after Safaricom took joint control of the m-Pesa IP and brand alongside Vodacom, having bought the asset from affiliate Vodafone.<\/p>\n
