We simplify digital trade across Africa, helping businesses source, verify, pay, and track every deal through seamless trade facilitation.

Our why

We built Brydge because we’ve lived the friction of doing business across Africa.

After years of trading across African markets, we faced the same barriers many African businesses struggle with from setting up local entities and navigating complex regulations, to managing multi-currency payments and fragmented compliance rules.

We asked: What if doing business across Africa didn’t come with all this operational struggle?

That question became our mission to remove the friction in African trade and make it easier for businesses to operate across borders.

Brydge is designed to help businesses launch and scale across the continent without needing to register in every market. As a Merchant on Record, we provide virtual local accounts, support mobile money, and automate end-to-end intra-africa trade processes all within a single platform that lets businesses Source, Verify, Pay, and Track every deal.

By removing structural and financial barriers, Brydge enables the kind of seamless, interconnected trade In which Africa continental free trade agreement (AfCFTA) was built to achieve empowering businesses of all sizes to access new markets, grow faster, and unlock the full potential of intra-African trade.
