PAPSS at UBA: Simplifying Cross-Border Payments for African Businesses

By ubaghana on June 25, 2024

The Pan-African Payment and Settlement System (PAPSS) is revolutionising cross-border payments in Africa, and UBA Ghana is at the forefront of this transformation. With PAPSS, businesses and individuals can now send money instantly to Guinea, Gambia, Liberia, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria from any UBA branch in Ghana, eliminating the hassles of paperwork, waiting times, and exchange rate fluctuations.

Streamlining Trade Across Africa

Before PAPSS, sending money across borders meant more currency conversions, leading to extra costs.

Consider Mansa, a business owner in Ghana who imports goods from Nigeria. Before PAPSS, Mansa faced numerous payment challenges, including hours spent on paperwork and days of waiting for transaction processing.

Discovering PAPSS transformed her operations. Now, Mansa can make instant payments to her suppliers in Nigeria and receive immediate confirmation. This efficiency allows her to receive goods promptly, contributing to her business’s growth and success. With PAPSS, Mansa saves time and reduces stress, empowering her to expand her business and trade confidently with partners across Africa.

How PAPSS Works

PAPSS offers a seamless and efficient solution for cross-border payments. The platform enables real-time transactions using local currencies, eliminating the need for currency conversions and reducing exchange rate risks and fees. Businesses can make direct payments to suppliers, partners, or customers in other African countries through a simple and intuitive online platform.

Join the Growing Network of Businesses Benefiting from PAPSS

With its seamless and efficient payment system, PAPSS is revolutionizing cross-border trade in Africa. Businesses that adopt PAPSS experience significant benefits, including time savings, reduced stress, and enhanced confidence in trading with partners across the continent.

Visit any UBA branch to discover how PAPSS can streamline your cross-border payments. Trade confidently with partners across Africa, thanks to PAPSS – making cross-border payments easy and seamless.
