The missing piece for African fintech. One MCP server. Every major African payment provider. Natural language payments.

# "Send KES 5,000 to Mary via M-Pesa"
# "Request $100 from a customer in Nigeria"  
# "Check if that MTN MoMo payment came through"
# "Process a refund for order #12345"

No more wrestling with 5 different APIs. No more juggling documentation.
Just natural language that works across M-Pesa, Paystack, MTN MoMo, and more.

Africa has the world's most innovative payment systems—M-Pesa, Paystack, Flutterwave, MTN MoMo, Chipper Cash—but integrating them is a nightmare:

• 🔀 Fragmented APIs: M-Pesa uses SOAP. Paystack uses REST. MTN MoMo uses something entirely different.
• 📚 Scattered Documentation: Hours spent hunting for the right docs
• 🔧 Different Auth Methods: API keys, OAuth, basic auth—each one unique
• 🐛 Edge Cases Everywhere: Each provider has quirks that break your code
• ⏱️ Weeks of Integration Time: Before you process a single payment

One MCP server. Every provider. Natural language.

// Instead of this...
const mpesa = new MpesaAPI({ consumerKey, consumerSecret, passkey });
await mpesa.authenticate();
const result = await mpesa.stkPush({ phone, amount, accountRef });

// Just say this:
"Send KES 5,000 to 254712345678 via M-Pesa"

# Follow the prompts to add your provider credentials

Add to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "africa-payments": {
      "command": "africa-payments-mcp",
      "env": {
        "MPESA_CONSUMER_KEY": "your_key",
        "PAYSTACK_SECRET_KEY": "your_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client and just ask:

"Send KES 5,000 to Mary via M-Pesa"
