Binance conducts multi-country engagement tour across Africa

Binance has completed a multi-country engagement tour across Africa aimed at supporting the continent’s digital payments ecosystem. During the tour, the company’s executive team met with central banks, regulators, policymakers, fintech leaders, and law enforcement agencies.

The initiative focuses on bridging traditional finance with digital assets through regulatory collaboration, strengthening compliance, and expanding remittance capabilities. A primary goal is to increase the everyday utility of Binance Pay for users across the region.

Larry Cooke, Africa Head of Legal at Binance, noted that while crypto adoption levels vary by country, there is a shared ambition to build digital finance responsibly. The company reported that Binance Pay is increasingly being used for cross-border remittances and daily transactions.
