Flutterwave, Africa’s leading payments technology company, today announced Google Pay, a mobile payment service, developed by Google, as a payment method on Flutterwave. As part of this collaboration, Google Pay will serve as an additional payment option for merchants on Flutterwave for business. This collaboration will offer safe and seamless payments, as well as convenient checkout experiences for customers.

Google Pay is a secure, convenient, and practical way to make contactless in-store, app, and online payments. In Google Wallet, a digital wallet app accessible on supported Android smartphones, tablets, or watches, users save their cards for Google Pay.

Through this partnership, customers of Google Pay in supported nations can make payments to companies using Flutterwave in Africa. This integration is intended to lower the rate of cart abandonment for businesses using Flutterwave, with an average transaction completion time of 3 minutes.

2. Select what you want to pay for
3. Fill out the order form
4. Select Pay with Google Pay as your payment method
5.  Complete the payment with your Google Pay details.

To get paid via Google Pay, Flutterwave merchants must manually opt in on their dashboard.

“The continued and rapid growth of Flutterwave is due to our commitment to building a platform with simplified payments for everyone. The GooglePay payment option will attract more international customers and increase the current success rates for businesses on Flutterwave. Integrating with Google pay will allow users across the globe to participate in the booming e-commerce ecosystem in Africa. It will enable us to further fulfill our promise of creating endless possibilities for all”.
