Chipper Cash Partners with Ripple for Crypto-Powered Cross-Border Payments

Chipper Cash, a leading African money movement firm, has signed a deal with Ripple to enable crypto-powered cross-border payments across the continent. The partnership will allow Chipper Cash’s five million customers across nine African countries to receive funds instantly, 24/7/365, via Ripple Payments.

Ripple Payments boasts 90+ payout markets, covering over 90% of daily FX transactions, and has processed $70 billion in volume globally. By integrating Ripple’s blockchain-powered payment solutions, Chipper Cash aims to reduce transaction costs and improve financial inclusion across Africa.

“Crypto-enabled payments have the potential to accelerate access to global markets and empower businesses and individuals across Africa,” said Ham Serunjogi, co-founder & CEO of Chipper Cash. “Through integrating with Ripple’s global payments network, we are excited to harness blockchain’s transformative potential to provide faster, lower-cost transactions.”

This partnership further expands Ripple’s footprint in Africa, following its 2023 collaboration with Onafriq.
