In May, Tanzania’s ClickPesa partnered with Dutch Payment facilitator Ai2 to provide farmers in the agriculture and horticulture industry in Tanzania a quicker and cheaper way to receive payments from buyers in Western Europe.

The partnership was to create substantial value for farmers based in Tanzania enabling them to collect payments directly from buyers in the European market, without using middlemen. In addition, it allows for faster settlement and a lower fee structure compared to using traditional banks.

The collaboration will result in an improvement of working capital. ClickPesa and Ai2 support direct business between farmers and buyers without using a middleman, which saves cost and time. Agriculture is a large economic sector in Tanzania, representing 29.1 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and almost three-quarters of the productive workforce.

Seamless process
The process is simple: the farmer signs up under ClickPesa and indicates it uses Ai2 for payment collection in Europe. The farmer uses the e-invoice service of ClickPesa to create an invoice stating the delivered products that will be sold. After sending the invoice, Ai2 sends the invoice to the buyer. The payment will be collected and a farmer will receive the money within a week converted into Tanzania Shilling (TZS) against a competitive rate into the farmer’s bank account in Tanzania.
