By Press Release, 30 April 2024

In a distinctive strategic step, EdfaPay, a leading technical payments startup, announced that it has obtained a license and approval for its financial payment solutions in the Tunisian market through its arm “WePay” in cooperation with We-Settle. This step strengthens EdfaPay plans for expansion in Africa in the field of financial payments to assist countries in their digital transformation and boost EdfaPay’s position as a leading technical payments provider.

WePay's superior platform is the result of combining the experience of Saudi's EdfaPay and the advanced fintech services of Tunisia's WePay. The expansion aims to provide payments integrated solutions to keep up with global market demands, and to promote advanced technological payments in the region.

EdfaPay has previously obtained licenses from global payment companies; such as Visa, MasterCard, and American Express, before obtaining the local Tunisian authentication. The startup is ready to launch its service in May along with the announcements of many signed contracts with clients from Tunisia and Morocco.

This step comes as a critical turning point for EdfaPay's global expansion. Fintech products including; checkout and SoftPOS will be introduced and developed by WePay, in addition to WePay International, a cross-border payment service for residents abroad, providing customers with a seamless and secure payment experience.
