Malawi & Zambia Launch Cross-Border Digital Payments Trial Amid Push for Integration: COMESA

The COMESA Clearing House (CCH) moved its Digital Retail Payments Platform into user trials between Malawi and Zambia—a major step toward seamless, low-cost cross-border transactions using local currencies, the organization said.

Key details:

🟠Supported by two digital finance providers and one forex partner;

🟠Designed for citizens, MSMEs, and informal traders;

🟠Aims to make regional payments as easy as local ones.

CCH calls on all stakeholders to join this critical phase to refine a system that’s secure, instant, and inclusive—powering trade and prosperity across Eastern and Southern Africa.

The initiative is part of CCH’s broader mission to integrate COMESA’s financial markets and boost regional trade through innovation.
