Nsano Establishes Presence in Rwanda, Obtains Crucial Payment Authorizations
Nsano, a Ghanaian fintech company, has made a significant stride in its expansion across Africa by launching its East African regional office in Rwanda in June 2025 [1]. This move marks a strategic expansion for the company, aiming to tap into the burgeoning technology hub that Rwanda has become [4].
In addition to geographic expansion, Nsano has formed a strategic partnership with AFS (Africa Financial Services) to integrate advanced card payment technologies [2]. This collaboration is expected to revolutionize card payments across the African continent, further solidifying Nsano's position as a leader in fintech innovation.
Nsano's growth over the past decade has been nothing short of remarkable. From humble beginnings as a VAS provider, the company has transformed into one of the continent's fastest-growing technology powerhouses [5]. This growth has not only transformed the payment landscape but also positioned Nsano as a key player in the African technology sector.
The company's focus on being customer-driven continues to be a cornerstone of its growth strategy. With regional offices in Ghana, Zambia, Côte d'Ivoire, Rwanda, and the UK, Nsano is well-positioned to provide cross-market synergies for its customers [6].
Priscilla Hazel, Group CEO of Nsano, expressed her excitement about establishing the East African presence in Rwanda, stating, "We are thrilled to be part of the thriving technology ecosystem in Rwanda. Our expansion into East Africa is a testament to our commitment to providing secure and innovative payment solutions across the continent" [7].
Nsano's strategic expansion and partnerships have earned it recognition as a top fintech innovator under capable leadership [3]. The company holds licenses from the Bank of Ghana, the Central Bank of Zambia, and the National Bank of Rwanda, demonstrating its ability to provide secure payment solutions [8].
In conclusion, Nsano's expansion into Rwanda and its strategic partnership with AFS are significant steps in the company's journey to become Africa's leading digital payment processor. With its customer-driven approach and focus on innovation, Nsano is well-positioned to continue its growth and impact on the African fintech landscape.
