NAIROBI, KENYA — 5 June 2026 — Epic Africa today detailed the payments experience available at launch: a secure checkout that supports multiple local currencies and is processed through accredited global financial partners.
Card details are entered and handled directly by the payment provider; Epic Africa retains only limited records such as a payment reference, amount, currency and status. The platform is further protected by additional security and bot-verification safeguards.
“Payments should feel familiar and safe wherever a customer is transacting from,” said an Epic Africa spokesperson. “Supporting multiple local currencies, with a secure financial infrastructure customers can trust, removes friction for customers and businesses.”
Highlights
- Checkout in multiple supported local currencies.
- Processing through accredited global financial partners over encrypted connections.
- No storage of full card numbers or banking credentials.
