Can I use M-pesa or other options for Shopify payments in Tanzania?

[JacksonYuka]

I'm in Tanzania. Paypal is the only offers in Tanzania? I checked the Q&A about payment in Africa but couldnt get the answer... 

I doubt I'll have access to Paypal Express. Is there anyway I can get on shopify like M-pesa or anything else?

Hi @JacksonYuka !

PayPal is unfortunately not support as a Shopify Payment here. You can see the available methods on this link. This should cover everything you need.

Cheers!

Dear @sarfaraz 

As a Shopify payment application development partner, we're excited to help you integrate the M-Pesa payment gateway with your Shopify store. Our team will ensure a seamless integration, fully aligned with Shopify's guidelines. To proceed with the integration, we'll need access to a test merchant account and an M-Pesa sandbox account. I'll send you a direct message to gather these details so we can begin the process.

Hello!

How do I get m pesa business account in Tanzania and how long will the transaction be taking from Shopify to mpesa account, what about the transaction fees? Is it the same as bank transaction from Shopify? Does this works with Airtel Money too? Also is it possible to have more than one payout method on Shopify?
