dLocal, a cross-border payment platform, and AZA Finance, a payments and foreign exchange fintech in Africa, have partnered to expand their service offerings across Africa.
The firm Both were part of the recent Africa Tech Summit 2025 that took place in Nairobi, Kenya where they announced that dLocal’s robust cross-border payment infrastructure and AZA Finance’s foreign exchange capabilities and network of regional licences, will give their customers improved payment processing, increased reach, and enhanced financial services.
“We are excited about combining our expertise to deliver exceptional payment solutions in Africa,” said Agustin Cerisola, General Manager Africa, Asia & Remittances at dLocal. “We hope this is the first step in an even broader partnership that would consolidate both companies’ leadership position and create a regional powerhouse in the African cross border payments space.”
Aza and dLocal share a commitment to driving financial inclusion and unlocking the power of emerging markets.
AZA Finance has established itself as a leader in remittances, providing efficient and reliable services for sending money into Africa. This collaboration enhances dLocal’s ability to support merchants in managing foreign exchange conversion, deepens the number of payout corridors dLocal can serve, and broadens the company’s portfolio of cross border payment solutions. Additionally, it expands the company’s reach across the continent, particularly in countries such as Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Egypt, Cameroon, and Zambia.
Furthermore, dLocal and AZA Finance are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), ensuring that they adhere to the highest standards of compliance and operational integrity.
