Partner With KeyBS Pay
We build corridor coverage through partners — licensed institutions, rail operators, data providers and trade networks. Here's how to work with us.
Partnership Tracks
- Licensed Financial Institutions. Banks, EMIs and money transmitters that provide regulated services on our corridors. We bring enterprise B2B flow; you bring the licence and local rails.
- Payment Rails & PSPs. Local rail operators and PSPs (RTGS, instant rails, mobile money) that want incremental cross-border volume with clean, pre-screened compliance packages.
- Technology Partners. KYB/KYC data providers, fraud and sanctions-screening vendors, ERP and e-invoicing platforms that want to embed or integrate with the KeyBS Pay API.
- Referral & Affiliate Partners. Trade associations, freight forwarders, sourcing agents and consultants who introduce importers and exporters. See our affiliate programme for commission details.
What We Look For
Regulatory good standing in your home jurisdiction, operational readiness for enterprise volume, API-first integration capability (or willingness to build it), and alignment with our compliance-first approach to emerging-market corridors.
Referral & Affiliate Programme
Individuals and firms that refer qualified businesses earn recurring commission on completed volume. Full terms, tracking dashboard and payout schedule are on the affiliate programme page.
How A Partnership Typically Starts
Most partnerships follow four steps: an introductory call to map corridor and capability fit, a mutual compliance exchange (licences, policies, audit posture), a scoped pilot on a single corridor or integration, and then a scale-up agreement once the pilot proves out. Coming to the first conversation with your licence scope and corridor coverage documented shortens the whole cycle considerably.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do you work with partners outside Africa? Yes — corridors have two ends. Licensed institutions and rail operators in China, the UAE, the UK, Europe and beyond are as central to our coverage as African partners.
- We are a technology vendor, not a licensed institution. Is there a track for us? Yes — KYB/KYC data, screening, ERP and e-invoicing integrations run under the technology track, typically starting with an API integration rather than a commercial corridor agreement.
- What does the referral programme pay? Recurring commission on completed volume from businesses you introduce. Full terms and the tracking dashboard are on the affiliate programme page.
