Waza

Global Payments & Treasury Management for Emerging Market Businesses

Visit Waza

Waza is a B2B payments platform for businesses in emerging markets, addressing limited access to hard currencies, complex regulatory frameworks, and high transaction fees in cross-border payments. It enables sending and receiving payments in USD, EUR, and GBP to 100+ countries through a web platform and APIs.

Core capabilities include multi-currency payments with 24/7 access to foreign currency, multiple payment channels (Waza balance, debit cards, e-wallets, and bank transfers), and a dashboard with reporting and reconciliation features. APIs are available for fintechs to embed global payments. Receivables and invoice management, including customisable invoicing, is listed as coming soon, with invoice financing in beta. Security features include real-time transaction monitoring and compliance with ISO and PCI DSS standards.

Waza serves businesses of all sizes, from sole importers to multinational organisations, as well as fintechs integrating payment capabilities. Onboarding is described as taking around 10 minutes, and account creation provides access to the platform. The pages do not specify a free plan, trial, or pricing structure.
