Verve has reached a significant milestone, announcing that over 100 million Verve cards are now in circulation across Africa. The achievement, shared on December 3, reflects the brand’s growing footprint in the continent’s digital payments ecosystem and highlights the increasing adoption of cashless transactions across multiple markets.
Verve emphasized that this milestone underscores the confidence of its partners, the loyalty of its users, and the trust placed in its secure and reliable payment solutions. The company noted that this growth has been driven by increased consumer demand for accessible, convenient, and safe payment methods, particularly in markets where traditional banking infrastructure remains limited.

By enabling millions of users to participate in the digital economy through cards and other digital payment solutions, the company is supporting broader financial inclusion initiatives across the continent. Its services have become particularly popular in regions with growing mobile money adoption and digital commerce activities.

Reaching 100 million active cards is not just a milestone; it is a signal of Verve’s ongoing commitment to innovation. The company continues to explore new technologies and partnerships to enhance the user experience, strengthen security measures, and introduce more convenient payment options. According to Verve, the journey is far from over, with plans to introduce further solutions that address evolving consumer and merchant needs across Africa.
Expanding Presence and Impact
The milestone also positions Verve as a central player in Africa’s broader payments ecosystem, serving millions of consumers and thousands of businesses. By offering secure, scalable, and interoperable payment solutions, Verve is helping bridge gaps in financial access while enabling small businesses, retailers, and online merchants to thrive.
As digital payments continue to accelerate across the continent, Verve’s growth signals both the rising adoption of cashless solutions and the transformative potential of technology-driven financial inclusion.
