Boku has added Capitec Pay to its payment aggregator platform, enabling global merchants to access Capitec Bank's 26 million active clients in South Africa through a single integration. This move leverages local payment methods in a market where card penetration exists but is uneven, potentially increasing conversion and transaction volumes for merchants.
