With great pleasure, Airtel Mobile Commerce BV, a division of Airtel Africa PLC, announces the introduction of the Airtel Money GlobalPay Card, a new payment method intended to link Airtel Money users throughout Africa with international online markets.
This partnership with Mastercard will enable safer and more secure international transactions by giving Airtel’s 150 million mobile phone consumers in 14 African nations access to Mastercard’s global merchant network. A virtual (non-plastic) payment method that connects straight to Airtel Money wallets is the Airtel Money GlobalPay Card.
Numerous international online retailers, including well-known sites like Facebook, Netflix, Uber, Amazon, Google, AliExpress, and Alibaba, accept this card for a variety of payments.From the comfort of their mobile phones, users will also be able to pay for subscriptions, utilities, trip reservations, and purchases from foreign vendors. Customers of Airtel Money can easily activate their Airtel Money GlobalPay Card.
Consumers only need to load the card from their Airtel Money wallet, opt in, and begin buying. There is no need for further paperwork, registration, or installations. Airtel and Mastercard hope that this payment system will help small firms in cross-border trade and satisfy Africa’s increasing demand for digital payments.
The collaboration supports Airtel Africa’s objective of increasing financial inclusion by offering mobile money users throughout the continent quick and easy payment options. Ian Ferrao, the CEO of Airtel Money, stated: “At Airtel, we are always innovating to improve the experience of the client. We are simplifying and expanding our customers’ access to international payments by integrating Mastercard’s secure virtual payment service with Airtel Money.
We are able to provide a worldwide e-commerce experience thanks to this partnership. Mastercard’s extensive worldwide reach and proficiency in payment solutions will be essential in aiding African initiatives for financial inclusion. The program is in line with Mastercard’s goal of integrating 25 million female entrepreneurs, 50 million small enterprises, and one billion people into the digital economy by 2025.
“Our digital partnerships strategy focusses on enabling the digital transformation of our partners, helping them provide their customers access to a seamless global payment ecosystem,” said Muhammad Nana, Senior Vice President for Digital Partnerships at Mastercard Middle East and Africa. We are assisting more customers in taking advantage of e-commerce, since more than 150 million Airtel Africa customers are now linked to the global digital economy.
African customers are well-positioned to benefit greatly from this innovative solution due to the rise in mobile internet access and the development of reasonably priced smartphones. The GlobalPay Card for Airtel Money enables consumers to access digital goods and services from their mobile devices, enabling both banked and unbanked customers to purchase internationally.
