Why local payments matter
Reach Ethiopian and African buyers who don't use international cards.
The gap Stripe doesn't fill
Many of your customers use Telebirr, CBE Birr, or local debit — not Visa/Mastercard.
MrSoftware ET integrates Chapa so you can accept:
- ETB settlements
- Mobile money (including Telebirr via Chapa)
- Local bank cards
Enabling local payments often doubles conversion for ETB-priced products.
