As the 2024 crypto market gears into its third week, Africa’s crypto ecosystem continues to rebuild its momentum. In 2023, Arica was not exempt from the damage the FTX crash caused. A sharp decline in trading volume for most of the continent followed. 

Even Nigeria, Africa’s highest crypto trading region, experienced a sharp decrease as traders pointed out of the market to salvage what little investment was left. This prolonged several months, forcing many African crypto exchanges to shut down.

Organizations like Lazerpay, Nestcoin, and many more had to close their shops or significantly reduce the number of staff to save money. 

Despite this prolonged state, Africa’s crypto ecosystem experienced a steady rise as regions like South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya warmed up to cryptocurrency. For instance, South Africa aims to break yet another record after announcing the release of a CTO legal framework. 

Currently, the region is among the top ecosystems in Africa, causing a massive influx of investors swarming in. Recently, a Paycorp and Triple-A partnership has emerged as a new feature within the CryptoExpress app, allowing users to use their digital currencies to withdraw cash in over 3000 ATMs in South Africa.

This new milestone further improves the reach of the PayCorp ATM network throughout South Africa’s crypto ecosystems and sets the stage for increased transaction volume.

Paycorp and Triple-A partnership are set to overhaul South Africa’s crypto ecosystem.

South Africa is one of the top three countries in Africa with a significant crypto trading volume. However, its optimistic take on digital assets makes the region stand out more. Its governments significantly contributed to the growth of SA’s crypto transaction volume by encouraging its citizens to venture into the franchise. 

In addition, South Africa hosts the most Crypto ATMs, giving its citizens a sense of tangibility when dealing with cryptocurrency. Furthermore, in 2022, the South African Reserve Bank publicly announced that the region will officially view cryptocurrency as a financial product.

This sent scholars throughout Africa’s crypto ecosystem, inspiring many peers to launch research teams to incorporate digital currency into their economic structure. 

To add the icing to the cake, South Africa revealed an impending crypto regulatory framework allowing the nation to benefit from SA’s crypto transaction volume while fostering favourable technology costs. Throughout 2023, the government has urged crypto0base organizations to register under its regulatory body, awaiting the release of the legal framework.

 Due to its positive outlook on digital assets, many crypto titans set their eyes on its growing ecosystem. In recent news, Global payments company Paycorp has partnered with Triple-A, a digital currency institution, to launch several programs within South Africa.

According to the announcement, the Paycorp and Triple-A partnership seeks to introduce a new feature to the Paycorp-powered CryptoExpress app. These new services will allow SA traders to use their digital currency directly to withdraw cash from over 3000 regional ATMs. 

This partnership also aligns with Paycorp’s efforts over the past few years. In over two decades, the global payment solutions company has established its PayCorp ATM network across South Africa. It is currently the region’s largest independent ATM network, comprising the popular Paycorp “Cash Express” ATMs in residential, commercial, and retail areas.

According to official reports, the Paycorp and Triple-A partnership seeks to leverage the CryptoExpress app’s growing reach in South Africa. The web3 application has significantly increased over the years, taking up an extensive portion of the PayCorp ATM network. 

Amongst popular features are various digital wallets, voucher cashouts, and standard cash withdrawals. Triple-A set in as a processing partner improving upon the CryptoExpress app by installing a feature facilitating cashouts from Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), USD Coin (USDC), and Tether (USDT) funds.

The application is available for free download on iOS and Android app stores to expand its availability.

The Paycorp and Triple-A partners have simplified the procedure requiring CryptoExpress app users to authorize the transaction in their digital wallets to receive a withdrawal voucher PIN generated by the application. Users must insert their mobile number and withdrawal PIN at a Cash Express ATM.

Steven Kark, Chief Executive Officer of Paycorp, said, “Our mission at Paycorp is to enhance cash accessibility, and this collaboration is a testament to this commitment. By joining forces with Triple-A, a trusted leader in the digital currency payments space, we are providing a new and convenient way for crypto holders in South Africa to access and make use of their digital assets.”

Eric Barbier, Triple-A Founder and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Triple-A is thrilled to partner with Paycorp, a powerhouse in the payments industry. Our mission of bridging the gap between digital and traditional currencies perfectly aligns with Paycorp’s dedication to connecting more people to their money.“

The main aim of the Paycorp and Triple-A partnership hinges on piggybacking on the vast reach of the Paycorp ATM network. In doing so, Triple-A will have access to SA’s crypto transaction volume and provide a means for day-to-day access.

This will revolutionize the region’s view of digital currency and set a new age for Africa. SA has pioneered many feats in the franchise, but this new feature on the CryptoExpress app could select a new age of financial revolution and inclusion.
