Payment security and fraud prevention
Paysasa keeps buyer payments, business wallets, and payouts on controls you can explain to a customer and to an auditor.
How payments stay accounted for
PCI DSS
Card data is handled through compliant payment partners. The PCI DSS mark is shown where we describe that control.
Signed requests
Business API calls use a tenant signature header so a captured request cannot be replayed from another host.
Wallet holds
Recent top-ups stay on hold before withdrawal or M-Pesa send. In-app transfers between wallets are not held.
Checkout settlement
Paid sales settle to the business wallet chosen for that checkout, not a personal fallback.
Access control
Business staff see only the permissions they are given. Closed or suspended businesses cannot change settings.
Fraud review
Unmatched paybill deposits stay unmatched until a person matches them. They are not credited automatically.
Fast, secure digital payments for modern businesses — with escrow and APIs when you need more than a button.
Built for trusted business payments across Africa.
