lomi. is a unified, scalable payment orchestration platform that integrates multiple payment service providers and provides a seamless experience for merchants and end-users across West Africa and beyond. Our platform simplifies payment management while ensuring the highest levels of security, reliability, and compliance.
🌍 Localised payment stack built for West Africa
Specifically designed to address the unique challenges of payment processing in francophone West Africa.
🔄 One integration
Integrate once to access multiple payment providers instead of managing separate integrations.
