Cross-Border Payments: UGX 400B+ Processed

Cross-border payments in East Africa have historically been slow, expensive, and opaque. RohoPay's cross-border tools changed that, processing over UGX 400 billion in volume across 12 active corridors with average settlement times under 4 hours.

Our FX routing engine finds the best exchange rate across multiple liquidity providers. For a typical UGX-to-KES transfer, merchants save 2.3% compared to traditional bank wire transfers. At our volume, that translates to over UGX 2.3 billion in savings for our merchants.

The most active corridors are Uganda-Kenya, Kenya-Tanzania, and Uganda-Rwanda. These three corridors account for 78% of our cross-border volume. We're seeing growing demand for Uganda-Nigeria and Kenya-Ghana corridors as businesses expand across the continent.

Settlement speed is a key differentiator. While traditional cross-border transfers take 2-5 business days, RohoPay completes most transfers in under 4 hours. For urgent payments, we offer near-instant settlement for transfers under UGX 5 million.

Compliance is handled automatically. Our system performs KYC verification, sanctions screening, and AML checks on every cross-border transaction. Merchants don't need to manage compliance manually — our platform handles it all.
