South African payment solutions that are similar to Stripe?

[d0b33]

Are there any payment gateway solutions similar to Stripe in South Africa?
I want to add a checkout page or embed it on a site, but I'm unsure what solutions we have here.

Something that also works for individuals, so it does not have to be for a company only?

Look at Peach Payments, or Payfast.

Thanks! I'll check them out.

PayStack is also decent for subscriptions

Peach Payments is looking promising.

Retrenchments at big South African payments company

Peach Payments has retrenched several staff at the company as it announces a major West African acquisition and less than two years after a R575-million funding round.

Yoco and iKhokha both also ventured into the online space, depending on which type of site you want to use it on

Paystack is actually backed by Stripe. I can highly recommend them, Peach Payments, Yoco or iKhokha.

Regarding Paystack, what do US customers see during checkout or on their invoice? Do they actually see the dollar amount?

Yes since thats what they'd be charged in?

Paystack is focused on African markets.

I've used these in production over the past few years.

The best all rounder : Yoco (Easy dev integration, nice UI, it just works)

The most reputable: Payfast (Best for high transaction volume, tedious custom integration but big clients trust this)

The most flexible: Paystack (Easy integration and a lot of features to customise, not based in SA, Nigeria, but have been using them on a site for years with no issues)

It's worth mentioning they all have WordPress plugins which makes integration super easy if you're going that route. Have a look at their websites for more information like pricing etc.

What's your take on stitch?

What's your take on stitch?

It looks new and shiny. I never worked with it but from the API docs the integration is sooo cool with graphQL. I wish all of them worked like that.

Netcash is also a good option. They offer VISA / MasterCard payments, and EFT / etc.
