Kora Showcases Scalable Cross-Border Payment Solutions as Africa Takes Centre Stage at iFX Expo 2026

Africa’s growth potential took centre stage at iFX Expo International 2026, with brokers, payment service providers, and fintech companies identifying the continent as one of their top strategic expansion markets. As businesses expand across multiple regions, the demand for unified payment infrastructure capable of supporting local collections, cross-border payouts, and settlements through a single platform continues to grow.

The topic featured prominently throughout iFX Expo International 2026 in Cyprus, where industry leaders gathered to explore the future of trading, payments, and customer acquisition in an increasingly interconnected financial landscape.

Africa attracts growing interest

Discussions with companies including B2Broker, Zotapay, Virtual Pay, Equals, Verify Africa, and Exness highlighted Africa as one of the most promising regions for future growth. Industry participants emphasized the need for integrated payment infrastructure that simplifies operations across multiple African markets while enabling businesses to scale efficiently.

During a panel session titled “Who Will Power the Future of Global Payments?”, Kora Chief Financial Officer Ayodeji Osisami stressed that successful expansion into Africa requires a deep understanding of local markets.

“You can’t serve a growing market by making assumptions. You have to be on the ground, understand what customers actually need, and build infrastructure that reflects the realities of each market,” he said.

His comments underscored the importance of combining local expertise with scalable technology to create payment solutions that meet the unique needs of businesses and consumers across the continent.

Enabling seamless cross-border payments

At the event, Kora demonstrated how businesses can manage pay-ins, payouts, and settlements across multiple African markets through a single integration. The discussions reflected a growing demand for payment infrastructure that reduces operational complexity while supporting regional expansion.

As cross-border financial services continue to expand across Africa, Kora remains focused on providing connected and reliable payment infrastructure that enables global businesses to enter and grow in African markets with greater efficiency and confidence.
