The payments landscape in Africa is complex. Helopay gives forex brokers the infrastructure to accept client funds, process withdrawals and stay compliant — without building it themselves.
Smart routing directs every transaction through the best available channel, maximising approval rates for M-Pesa, card and bank deposits across African markets — so fewer clients abandon before funding their trading account.
Real-time transaction monitoring, velocity checks and AML screening protect your platform against the elevated fraud risk that comes with large forex deposits and rapid withdrawals, without adding friction for legitimate traders.
Traders choose brokers who pay out fast. Helopay settles withdrawals to mobile money and bank accounts in real time, giving your clients the confidence to deposit more knowing their profits are always accessible.
A single REST API integration connects your trading platform to every African payment method Helopay supports. Go live in days, then scale to any transaction volume as your client base grows — no renegotiations, no re-integration.
Accept Visa and Mastercard deposits securely, with smart routing that maximises approval rates for traders funding their accounts from across Africa.
Reach traders in mobile-first markets with M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money and more — trusted payment methods your clients already use every day.
Support local and international bank transfers for high-value deposits, giving institutional and retail traders a reliable, familiar funding route.
Process client withdrawals efficiently and at scale — to mobile wallets, bank accounts or cards — with real-time status updates and automatic retry on failure.
Advanced transaction monitoring, velocity controls and AML screening reduce fraudulent activity without adding friction for legitimate traders.
Track deposits, withdrawals, settlements and payment performance through a centralised dashboard — with exportable reports and webhook-driven alerts.
"Before Helopay, our traders in Kenya and Nigeria were losing trust because deposit failures were a daily issue. Within weeks of going live, our mobile money deposit success rate hit 93% and withdrawal complaints dropped to almost zero. Our clients finally feel like they're using a professional platform."
