Frequently asked questions
How do you accept Mobile Money online?
Either you hand out your number and check screenshots by hand (fragile), or you go through an aggregator that confirms payments automatically. Fiitsa builds the second option into the WhatsApp checkout.
What fees should you expect?
Each operator applies its own withdrawal or transfer fees, usually between 1 and 3%. Always compare the total cost against what an unpaid order or a lost sale would cost you.
Does Mobile Money work across countries?
More and more. WAEMU transfers go through smoothly between certain operators, and aggregators let you collect from customers in several countries on a single merchant account.
