Daya gives African businesses one place to collect locally, access FX, manage balances across currencies, and pay suppliers around the world. With Tempo supporting its stablecoin payment flows, Daya can extend that experience over infrastructure designed for payments while keeping routing, liquidity, and settlement complexity out of sight for customers. Learn more about Daya.
Connecting African businesses to global markets
Daya provides unified payment infrastructure, real-time FX, stablecoin rails, and treasury management for African businesses. Its current products support Nigerian businesses with local NGN collection and payouts, conversion between NGN, ZAR, GHS, KSH, and stablecoins, USD, EUR, CNY, HKD, and GBP virtual accounts and payouts.
For importers, exporters, startups, and growing businesses, that brings local collection, currency conversion, multi-currency accounts, and global payments into one product. Daya coordinates the routing, liquidity, FX, and reconciliation across providers so its customers do not have to.
Extending Daya’s payment infrastructure with Tempo
Daya is now powered by Tempo, giving Daya a payments-first settlement rail for stablecoin movement inside the products its customers already use, while Daya continues to manage FX, liquidity, routing, and support within one product experience.
Why Tempo
Tempo is a blockchain built for payments at scale. Its deterministic, sub-second finality gives Daya clear settlement certainty, while fixed, predictable fees make network costs easier to forecast as payment volume grows. Fees can be paid in stablecoins, reducing the need to manage a separate asset for network fees.
“We want African businesses to move between local currencies and stablecoins without having to manage the infrastructure underneath. Adding Tempo gives us another payments-first settlement rail while Daya continues to handle routing, liquidity, and FX behind one product experience.”
— Aleph L, Founder and CEO, Daya
“Daya is building the financial infrastructure African businesses need to operate across borders. We’re glad to support that work as Daya brings more stablecoin payment flows onto a network designed for payments.”
— Josh Itzkovitz, Tempo
What comes next
Daya and Tempo will continue expanding the integration across more of Daya’s stablecoin payment flows. The teams will share more as additional customer use cases go live and there are verified operational outcomes to report.
