The universal financial network for West Africa

Move money from anywhere to anywhere.

Banks, mobile money, cards and wallets have never spoken the same language. WestPay AI is the routing layer between them — built to integrate with licensed partners, transparent fees, real-time settlement tracking, one intelligent platform.

Every rail, one interface

Designed for transfers through licensed banking and payment partners. Provider routes and live settlement require authorized integrations; unavailable routes cannot move money.

An operating system for money, not another wallet

Universal financial hub

View connected accounts and WestPay activity in one place. Card issuing and external provider connections depend on licensed partners.

Smart routing engine

Routing is designed to use configured provider capabilities and availability; external routes need authorized integrations before they can go live.

AI financial assistant

Compare fees, estimate arrival times, explain a transaction, flag unusual activity and surface savings opportunities in plain language.

Personal payment QR

A unique WestPay payment link per user. Acceptance by external bank and mobile money apps is not connected yet.

Intelligent recipient detection

Resolve WestPay IDs, phone numbers, emails, usernames and QR codes before confirming payment. Bank account name-check needs a licensed partner.

Compliance by design

KYC, AML workflows, fraud monitoring, audit logs and role-based access designed into every country we plan to launch in.

Built country by country, licensed market by market

The architecture treats a country as configuration: rails, regulators, currencies and partners plug in without redesign. That is how WestPay expands across Africa without rebuilding itself.
