Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Rwanda account for about 97% of businesses and contribute almost 55% to the total GDP. That makes small merchants critical to job creation and the economic growth of the country. New tools provided by Flutterwave will help them facilitate business operations and reach more customers globally.

Besides using Flutterwave as a payment gateway at the checkout stage, sending invoices and payment links, businesses can also set up their online stores straight from the Flutterwave dashboard.

The company’s proprietary software enables both foreign and African sellers to serve pan-African customers while processing payments like a local company. The list of existing customers includes Uber, Booking.com, and Jumia.
