Facilitate Global and local payments with ONE integration.
Songhai Exchange by FinCode connects your business directly to global and local payout partners to process cross-border payments. No intermediaries, no bottlenecks. With one API, you own your FX margins and grow your cross-border operations.
Reducing the cost of cross-border payment into and across Africa
Cross-border payments are costly because numerous middlemen sit between the sender and the receiver, especially in Africa. Families and small businesses end up paying more than they should. We built our payment switch to remove those layers and make money move at a fair cost.
Our goal is to create a direct and reliable path for payments from where your customers are to anywhere in the world. Fewer intermediaries mean lower fees, faster settlement, and better control for IMTOs and fintechs.numerous intermediaries
