Payment Gateway

Powerlynx now supports payments through DPO Pay

October 15, 2024

Today, we’re making a further step in expanding payments in how businesses get paid for WiFi hotspot vouchers, including DPO Pay, an Africa-focused digital payments provider, into Powerlynx’s list of supported payment gateways. This new payment integration — another alternative way to easily monetize your WiFi hotspots directly on a platform, right on a splash page with just a few clicks, is particularly great for businesses across Africa.

Why DPO Pay Integration is a Big Deal

DPO Pay is widely used across Africa, with over $2 billion in online and mobile payments processed annually. Today, it supports over 130,000 merchants in more than 20 countries, including South Africa, Kenya, Botswana, Malawi, Rwanda, Uganda, Mauritius, Côte d’Ivoire, Zambia, Ghana, Namibia, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Nigeria, UAE, and Zimbabwe.

It helps SMEs of all types accept and process not only all major cards (Mastercard, Visa, and American Express) but also local mobile money wallet favorites, such as Airtel Money, M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Tigo Pesa and many others. So, customers have plenty of easy and secure mobile payment options to pay for goods or services using their mobile devices and wherever they are and whoever they are.

With DPO integration in Powerlynx, Africa’s WISPs and merchants that provide WiFi services through hotspots can streamline online multi-currency payments with their customers, enabling quick and easy hassle-free checkout via the custom splash page.
