Kappa offers a fast, affordable, and reliable way for African individuals and businesses to send and receive payments with higher transaction limits, starting in Cameroon. Our goal is to eliminate the friction and barriers that have held back African businesses from reaching their full potential. There are many reasons to choose Kappa: Seamless flows - connect your bank account to withdraw and deposit funds. Speed - make payments within minutes, with guaranteed arrival and settlement times. Large transactions - send and receive money with larger transaction limits than currently available. Ultra-low fees - enjoy either low-cost or no-cost fees, depending on the transaction type. Safety - rely on state-of-the-art encryption and anti-fraud technology. Kappa is starting with in-country transactions in Cameroon, and will add cross-border transactions in the near future. Once you establish your account, you can invite up to five others per month to join Kappa. We provide customer support in both French and English. You need a code to sign up in the app. Kappa is currently by invitation only and is not yet open to the public. If you don’t yet have a code, we recommend that you join the waitlist right in the app.
