Sawasawa is a plugin that enables e-commerce businesses to accept payments on their websites in hard cash through agents in Africa.
Launching soon.
How It Works
Step 1
Customer shops on an ecommerce store and checks out using the Sawasawa option.
The
Sawasawa gateway creates an order number that
the customer uses to pay for their order using hard cash at any Sawasawa agent.
Step 2
The customer pays for their order to the agent. The agent releases the customers funds to the merchant after the delivery of the customers order is complete.
