Kotani Pay joins Viction to drive Web3 adoption in Africa
Kotani Pay, a licensed on/off-ramp platform for digital assets, has officially integrated with Viction. This integration allows builders to seamlessly embed Kotani Pay’s API into their products, enabling effortless stablecoin-to-fiat conversions across Africa with the support of Viction’s zero-gas technology.
The collaboration not only helps builders expand their reach across multiple countries in Africa but also enables the Money Free Movement for individuals and businesses alike using multiple payment routes..
Powering Africa with seamless API & Zero-gas fees
Africa remains one of the fastest-growing crypto markets in the world, yet the promise of Web3 often feels just out of reach—especially when a single transaction could cost someone a considerable portion of their earnings. While many Africans are eager to engage with decentralized finance, high fees—along with regulatory uncertainty and financial infrastructure gaps—remain major barriers to fiat-to-crypto access across the continent.
That’s what makes the partnership between Viction and Kotani Pay so impactful. Kotani Pay supports 11 key African markets, including Kenya (KES), Ghana (GHC), Tanzania (TZS), Uganda (UGX), Rwanda (RWF), South Africa (ZAR), Cameroon (XAF), Zambia (ZMW), Ivory Coast (XOF), DRC (CDF) and Malawi (MWK) Viction is kicking off this collaboration by enabling zero-gas fee on/off-ramping in Kenya, with plans to expand into other African countries in the near future..
