We're building trust in African commerce.
Payburse was born from a simple frustration: too many Nigerians lose money to online scams. We're changing that with AI-powered escrow technology.
Our Mission
To eliminate fraud and build absolute trust in every online transaction across Africa.
We believe that commerce should be safe, fair, and accessible to everyone—from the Instagram vendor in Lagos to the freelancer in Kaduna. Our AI-powered platform ensures that buyers get what they pay for, and sellers get paid for what they deliver.
Trust First
Every feature we build starts with one question: Does this make transactions safer?
Speed Matters
We know time is money. Our systems process transactions in milliseconds.
Africa-Focused
Built specifically for the unique challenges of African e-commerce.
