Our Vision
To be the premier digital payment gateway across Rwanda, fostering a borderless financial ecosystem that connects businesses and individuals seamlessly.

Company
KitovuPay is mobile money infrastructure for African businesses — licensed in Rwanda and built for merchants, institutions, developers, and the customers who pay them.
What guides us
Technology works best when it makes the complex feel simpler and gives people more room to focus on what matters.
To be the premier digital payment gateway across Rwanda, fostering a borderless financial ecosystem that connects businesses and individuals seamlessly.
Providing inclusive, accessible and innovative financial solutions that empower individuals and business across Rwanda.
We help businesses get paid properly: invoicing, payment links, QR codes, USSD, and APIs on top of licensed collection and disbursement rails. Commerce data lives in our Merchant Services layer; wallets and telco execution live in the core payment gateway — so product teams and finance teams each get a clear system of record.
KitovuPay is licensed by the National Bank of Rwanda as a payment service provider and for remittances. We operate from Kigali and design for how business actually moves money across the continent.
