Zambian fintech Zoyk gets BCC approval to take Zoykpay into DRC
- Zambia's Zoyk receives regulatory approval to offer payment aggregation services in the DRC.
- Zoykpay aims to simplify payment processes for businesses in the DRC by connecting various payment channels.
- Lesaka Technologies reports a profit of R39.8 million in FY2026, a significant recovery from a previous loss.
The developments in the fintech sector across Africa, particularly with Zoyk and Lesaka, indicate a promising shift towards more integrated and efficient financial services. However, the success of these initiatives will depend on regulatory environments and market readiness. Ghana's ambitious 5G goals reflect a commitment to modernizing its digital infrastructure, but achieving meaningful coverage remains a challenge.
