Paymentology has expanded its partnership with South African fintech Mukuru to launch the Mukuru Account & Card, moving beyond remittances into everyday banking with Mastercard-enabled services in partnership with Bank Zero. This broadened financial service lets customers receive salaries, make payments, shop, withdraw cash, and send money cross-border from a single account.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 2 sources have reported it between 26 Oct 2026 and 27 Oct 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now offer a full everyday banking service linked to cross-border payments by cooperating with platform specialists like Paymentology and Bank Zero, who let you bypass building banking infrastructure. This opens a direct route to scale in African fintech markets where customers demand integrated financial services.
