Built in Cameroon.
Made for all Francophone Africa.
Nexus was born from one conviction: Africa deserves a payments infrastructure worthy of its ambitions — fast, reliable, and compatible with local realities. One API connecting Mobile Money, cards and wallets across 24 Francophone countries.
Make Africa financially interoperable.
For too long, sending money between Cameroon and Senegal has been harder than a transfer to Paris. Operators, banks, regulators, currencies — everything fragmented.
Nexus exists to unify all of that behind a single API. Our ambition is to give African businesses — from startups to large groups — the same level of tools as a merchant in San Francisco or Singapore. Without compromising on local specifics.
Concretely: a developer in Abidjan can today integrate Mobile Money, Visa and a mass payroll system in under a day with Nexus. That's what making Africa interoperable means.
From Douala to 24 countries in three years.
Founded in Douala
The idea was born from a simple observation: building in Francophone Africa is slowed down by payment fragmentation. Nexus is founded to unify Mobile Money, cards and wallets behind a single API.
