EP44: Borderless by Design: Building Seamless Cross-Border Payments Across Africa with Fincra

Recorded live at Africa Tech Summit Nairobi, this episode features Emmanuel Babalola, Chief Commercial Officer at Fincra.

Fincra is one of Africa’s leading fintechs, building payment infrastructure that helps businesses collect, convert, and settle money across the continent’s fragmented currency landscape.

In this conversation, Babs explores how Fincra is building borderless payment rails that cut reliance on the US dollar, enabling direct currency settlement between African markets through local bank accounts and real-time treasury tools.

The discussion also covers Fincra’s partnership-first approach to banks and regulators, its expansion plans across 10+ markets, and the rising role of stablecoins in Africa’s fintech future.
