Africa Free Routing: Instant & Free Transactions in South Africa

Africa Free Routing, the largest network of Bitcoin lightning nodes in Africa, proudly announces the launch of its first payment routing node in South Africa.

Following on from successful nodes in Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya, South Africa Free Routing aims to transform the landscape of Bitcoin transactions in South Africa by offering customers and merchants the ability to make and receive instant, free payments. This innovative platform is set to redefine the speed, efficiency, and affordability of payments across the country.

The Lightning Network, Bitcoin’s second layer, has brought remarkable advancements to the payment industry, enabling transactions that are orders of magnitude cheaper than traditional channels and with instant final settlement for the retailer with zero chargebacks. With South African Free Routing, as the node is called, locals can now experience lightning-fast transactions while bypassing the conventional hurdles associated with fees and delays.

Africa Free Routing launched its first global node in 2022 in partnership with U.S.-based Voltage, the global leader in Bitcoin lightning infrastructure. Since this inception, Africa Free Routing has now grown to 5 nodes, four of which are located on the African continent and already drive a dominant share of Africa’s Bitcoin transactions.

A key business model is that all the Africa Free Routing nodes route all transactions for free. This is to ensure that there is no barrier to customers switching to lightning payments. Hosting nodes locally also ensures that payment routing is literally as fast as the speed of light.

We invite all South African businesses, and individuals seeking rapid and economical payment solutions to connect with Africa Free Routing and their groundbreaking network. Embrace the future of digital transactions and experience a level of efficiency never seen before in the realm of payments.
