Real Problems, Real Solutions

A talented software developer in Buea was earning $3,000-5,000/month from US clients via Upwork and direct contracts. But every payment went through 2-3 intermediary banks, arriving 5 days later with 15-20% eaten up in fees. Local banks offered no USD accounts, and Western Union charged even more. He was effectively paying a 'tax' for being African in the global economy.

We set him up with Pursar Global Receiving — a US bank account linked to his Pursar wallet. His US clients now pay into his US account directly. Funds settle in under 5 seconds into his Pursar wallet, where he can convert to XAF at competitive rates or spend with a virtual Visa card. No intermediary banks. No waiting.

A popular restaurant with 3 locations was losing money on delivery. 70% of delivery orders were cash-on-delivery, which meant riders carried cash, orders got refused, and the restaurant had zero visibility into whether food was actually delivered. Revenue from delivery was unpredictable and fraud was common.

We integrated Pursar payments with TimeUp delivery. Customers now pay digitally when ordering. Funds are held in Pursar escrow and only released to the restaurant when TimeUp confirms delivery via GPS and photo proof. The restaurant gets paid instantly upon delivery confirmation — no cash handling, no fraud risk, no disputes.

A B2B SaaS startup had 200+ customers paying monthly, but every payment was manual. Their team spent 3 days each month calling customers, sending WhatsApp reminders, and reconciling MTN Mobile Money receipts by hand. Collection rate was 65%, and they had no visibility into who had paid until they checked manually.

We deployed Pursar Subscriptions — our recurring billing engine built directly on MTN and Orange Mobile Money APIs. Customers authorize auto-debit once. Every month, Pursar automatically charges their mobile wallet, sends them a receipt, and updates the startup's dashboard in real-time. Failed charges auto-retry with smart dunning.
